Abstract

We consider a family of operators connected with the geodesic flow on the modular surface. We show certain spectral information is retained after expanding their domain to the space of α\alpha-H\"older continuous functions on the unit interval. For example, the point spectra associated with the Maass cusp forms and non-trivial zeroes of the Riemann zeta function to the right of the critical line remain unchanged when the H\"older constant is (1/2+ε)(1/2+\varepsilon) and 3/43/4 respectively. We briefly consider a three-term functional equation introduced by Lewis in the H\"older setting and provide a partial classification of solutions in this setting.
