We study statistical properties of Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms on GL(n). For most Hecke-Maass cusp forms, we give the asymptotic number of nonvanishing coefficients, show that there is a positive proportion of sign changes…

In this paper, we investigate sign changes of Fourier coefficients of half-integral weight cusp forms. In a fixed square class $t\mathbb{Z}^2$, we investigate the sign changes in the $tp^2$-th coefficient as $p$ runs through the split or…

In this article, we give some results on simultaneous non-vanishing and simultaneous sign-changes for the Fourier coefficients of two modular forms. More precisely, given two modular forms $f$ and $g$ with Fourier coefficients $a_n$ and…

We extend the axiomatization for detecting and quantifying sign changes of Meher and Murty to sequences of complex numbers. We further generalize this result when the sequence is comprised of the coefficients of an $L$-function. As…

We show that signs of Fourier coefficients, on certain sub-families, determine the half-integral weight cuspidal eigenform uniquely, up to a positive constant. We also study sign change results for the product of the Fourier coefficients of…

In this paper we prove a number of theorems that determine the extent to which the signs of the Hecke eigenvalues of an Eisenstein newform determine the newform. We address this problem broadly and provide theorems of both individual and…

We prove that a Siegel cusp form of degree 2 for the full modular group is determined by its set of Fourier coefficients a(S) with 4 det(S) ranging over odd squarefree integers. As a key step to our result, we also prove that a classical…

Let f be a generalized modular function of weight 0 of level N such that its q-exponents c(n)(n>0) are all real, and div(f) is zero. In this note, we show the equidistribution of signs for c(p)(p prime) by using equidistribution theorems…

Let $f$ be a Hecke cusp form of weight $k$ for the full modular group, and let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_{n\geq 1}$ be the sequence of its normalized Fourier coefficients. Motivated by the problem of the first sign change of $\lambda_f(n)$, we…

We prove that the Kloosterman sum $S(1,1;c)$ can change sign infinitely often as $c$ runs over squarefree moduli with at most 10 prime factors, which improves the previous results of E. Fouvry and Ph. Michel, J. Sivak-Fischler and K.…
