Oscillations and first-ever negative Fourier coefficients of symmetric square L-functions over sparse set
Abstract
Let denote the symmetric square lift of a Hecke eigenform with the -Fourier coefficients . In this article, we prove an estimate for the first moment of the sequence where denotes the set of in-equivalent reduced forms of the discriminant . More precisely, we establish an estimate for the following sum: \begin{equation*} \begin{split} S(sym^{2}f, D; X ) &= \sideset{}{^{\flat }}\sum_{\substack{\mathcal{Q}(\underline{x}) \leq X \\ \underline{x} \in \mathbb{Z}^{2} ,~ \mathcal{Q} \in \mathcal{S}_{D} \\ \gcd(\mathcal{Q}(\underline{x}),N) =1 }} \lambda_{sym^{2}f}(\mathcal{Q}(\underline{x})), \end{split} \end{equation*} Moreover, we consider a question concerning the behavior of signs of the Fourier coefficients supported on the set of integers represented by reduced forms of the discriminant . We determine the size of (see definition before \thmref{ExtMatKLSW}), in terms of the conductor of the associated -functions.
