Unconditional Density Bounds for Quadratic Norm-Form Energies via Lorentzian Spectral Weights
Abstract
For a real quadratic field , we study the norm-form energy , where and are Lorentzian-weighted zero sums with . We prove three main results. (1) Spacelike spectral data: unconditionally for all squarefree , as a consequence of a low-lying zero dominance theorem proved via explicit zero-counting. (2) Effective density bound: at each verified truncation level , , established unconditionally via Jacobi--Anger resonance analysis. At fixed the bound is nontrivial only for sufficiently large ; the rate requires to grow with , which in turn requires a uniform density bound that we establish under a computationally verified finite-rank condition on the resonance lattice. (3) Exact asymptotic: under the computationally verified hypothesis that the infinite resonance lattice has finite rank (verified to have rank for ), the sharp asymptotic holds. For , ; the constant depends on through the zeros of , and as . Appendix F tabulates between 1004 and 1044 zeros at 70 decimal places for , , , , , , , and , all rigorously certified by ARB interval arithmetic.
