Abstract

Let GG be a connected and simply connected semisimple algebraic group over Q\Bbb Q and let ΓG(Q)\Gamma\subset G(\Bbb Q) be an arithmetic subgroup. Let KG(R)K_\infty\subset G(\Bbb R) be a maximal compact subgroup and let dd be the dimension of the symmetric space G(R)/KG({\mathbb R})/K_\infty. Let σ\sigma be an irreducible unitary representation of KK_\infty. We prove that for every Γ\Gamma there exists a normal subgroup Γ1Γ\Gamma_1\subset \Gamma of finite index such that the quotient of the counting function of the Γ1\Gamma_1-cuspidal spectrum of weight σ\sigma and Td/2T^{d/2} has a positive lower bound as TT\to\infty.
