Abstract

We study the average shifted convolution sum B(H,N):=1HhHnNAπ1(n)Aπ2(n+h), B(H,N):= \frac{1}{H} \sum_{h \sim H} \sum_{n \sim N} A_{\pi_1}(n)\, A_{\pi_2}(n+h), where Aπi(n)A_{\pi_i}(n) denotes the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke--Maass cusp form πi\pi_i for SL(di,Z)\mathrm{SL}(d_i,\mathbb{Z}) with di4d_i\ge 4, i=1,2i=1,2. We establish a nontrivial power-saving bound of B(H,N)B(H,N) for the range of the shift HN14d1+d2+εH\ge N^{1-\frac{4}{d_1+d_2}+\varepsilon} for any ε>0\varepsilon>0. For the cases d1=d2+1d_1 = d_2 + 1 and d1=d2d_1 = d_2, our result extends a result that can be derived from a theorem of Friedlander and Iwaniec. In particular, when d1=d2d_1 = d_2, we reach the critical threshold HN12/d+εH\ge N^{1-2/d+\varepsilon} such that any further improvement in this range yields a subconvexity bound for the corresponding standard LL-function in the tt-aspect.
