Abstract

We prove an equidistribution theorem for a family of holomorphic Siegel cusp forms for GSp4/QGSp_4/\mathbb{Q} in various aspects. A main tool is Arthur's invariant trace formula. While Shin and Shin-Templier used Euler-Poincar\'e functions at infinity in the formula, we use a pseudo-coefficient of a holomorphic discrete series to extract holomorphic Siegel cusp forms. Then the non-semisimple contributions arise from the geometric side, and this provides new second main terms A,B1A, B_1 in the main theorem which have not been studied and a mysterious second term B2B_2 also appears in the second main term coming from the semisimple elements. Furthermore our explicit study enables us to treat more general aspects in the weight. We also give several applications including the vertical Sato-Tate theorem, the unboundedness of Hecke fields and low-lying zeros for degree 4 spinor LL-functions and degree 5 standard LL-functions of holomorphic Siegel cusp forms.
