Rigorous computation of Maass cusp forms of squarefree level

Number Theory 2022-10-03 v2

Abstract

We derive an algorithm to rigorously compute and verify Maass cusp forms of squarefree level and trivial character. The main tool we use is an explicit version of the Selberg trace formula with Hecke operators due to Str\"{o}mbergsson. We use this algorithm to compute several thousand Maass forms for a range of levels and use this data to obtain numerical evidence towards various conjectures.
