Below is a snippet sample that accomplishes this:

// to find out how to get the credentials...
// see: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/data-lake-analytics-dotnet-auth-options

var adlCreds = ...;
string adls = "youradlsaccountname";   

var adlsFileSystemClient = new DataLakeStoreFileSystemManagementClient(adlCreds);

var adlsaccount = adlsAccountClient.Account.Get(rg, adls);
adlsFileSystemClient.FileSystem.Create( adls, "/emptyfile.dat", null, null, null,null,null);
