Abstract

We give a classification of the Harish-Chandra modules generated by the pullback to~\SL2(\RR)\SL{2}(\RR) of \emph{poly}harmonic Maa\ss{} forms for congruence subgroups of~\SL2(\ZZ)\SL{2}(\ZZ) with exponential growth allowed at the cusps. This extends results of Bringmann--Kudla in the harmonic case. While in the harmonic setting there are nine cases, our classification comprises ten; A new case arises in weights k>1k > 1. To obtain the classification we introduce quiver representations into the topic and show that those associated with polyharmonic Maa\ss{} forms are cyclic, indecomposable representations of the two-cyclic or the Gelfand quiver. A classification of these transfers to a classification of polyharmonic weak Maa\ss{} forms. To realize all possible cases of Harish-Chandra modules we develop a theory of weight shifts for Taylor coefficients of vector-valued spectral families. We provide a comprehensive computer implementation of this theory, which allows us to provide explicit examples.
