Abstract

Let ff and gg be two holomorphic or Hecke-Maass primitive cusp forms for SL(2,Z)SL(2,\mathbb{Z}) and χ\chi be a primitive Dirichlet character of modulus pp, an odd prime. A subconvex bound for the central values of the Rankin-Selberg LL-functions is L(s,fgχ)L(s, f \otimes g \otimes \chi) is given by L(12,fgχ)f,g,ϵp2728+ϵ,L(\frac{1}{2}, f \otimes g \otimes \chi) \ll_{f,g,\epsilon}p^{\frac{27}{28}+\epsilon} , for any ϵ>0\epsilon > 0, where the implied constant depends only on the forms f,gf,g and ϵ\epsilon. Here the convexity bound has exponent 1+ϵ1+\epsilon, which was improved to 1113241-\frac{1}{1324} (see \cite{HM}). Our bound reduces it further to 11281- \frac{1}{28}. The main ingredients is to reduce the original problem to a GL(2)×GL(2)GL(2) \times GL(2) shifted convolution sum problem.
