We characterize Maass cusp forms for any cofinite Hecke triangle group as 1-eigenfunctions of appropriate regularity of a transfer operator family. This transfer operator family is associated to a certain symbolic dynamics for the geodesic…
We provide an explicit construction of a cross section for the geodesic flow on infinite-area Hecke triangle surfaces which allows us to conduct a transfer operator approach to the Selberg zeta function. Further we construct closely related…
For geometrically finite non-compact developable hyperbolic orbisurfaces (including those of infinite volume), we provide transfer operator families whose Fredholm determinants are identical to the Selberg zeta function. Our proof yields an…
Over the last few years Pohl (partly jointly with coauthors) developed dual `slow/fast' transfer operator approaches to automorphic functions, resonances, and Selberg zeta functions for a certain class of hyperbolic surfaces…
In this paper we extend the transfer operator approach to Selberg's zeta function for cofinite Fuchsian groups to the Hecke triangle groups G_q, q=3,4,..., which are non-arithmetic for q \not= 3,4,6. For this we make use of a Poincare map…
We characterize the Maass cusp forms for Hecke congruence subgroups of prime level as 1-eigenfunctions of a finite-term transfer operator.
The transfer operator for $\Gamma_0(N)$ and trivial character $\chi_0$ possesses a finite group of symmetries generated by permutation matrices $P$ with $P^2=id$. Every such symmetry leads to a factorization of the Selberg zeta function in…
We consider the family of Hecke triangle groups $ \Gamma_{w} = \langle S, T_w\rangle $ generated by the M\"obius transformations $ S : z\mapsto -1/z $ and $ T_{w} : z \mapsto z+w $ with $ w > 2.$ In this case the corresponding hyperbolic…
The standard realization of the Hecke algebra on classical holomorphic cusp forms and the corresponding period polynomials is well known. In this article we consider a nonstandard realization of the Hecke algebra on Maass cusp forms for the…
This paper studies algebraic and analytic structures associated with the Lerch zeta function. It defines a family of two-variable Hecke operators $\{ T_m: \, m \ge 1\}$ given by $T_m(f)(a, c) = \frac{1}{m} \sum_{k=0}^{m-1} f(\frac{a+k}{m},…
For a fixed SL(3, Z) Maass form g, we consider the family of L-functions L(g \times u_j, s) where u_j runs over the family of Hecke-Maass cusp forms on SL(2,Z). We obtain an estimate for the second moment of this family of L-functions at…
In this article we report on a surprising relation between the transfer operators for the congruence subgroups $\Gamma_{0}(n)$ and the Hecke operators on the space of period functions for the modular group $\PSL (2,\mathbb{Z})$. For this we…
In this paper, we study the Drinfeld cusp forms for $\Gamma_1(T)$ and $\Gamma(T)$ using Teitelbaum's interpretation as harmonic cocycles. We obtain explicit eigenvalues of Hecke operators associated to degree one prime ideals acting on the…
The Katz-Sarnak Density Conjecture states that the behavior of zeros of a family of $L$-functions near the central point (as the conductors tend to zero) agrees with the behavior of eigenvalues near 1 of a classical compact group (as the…
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis for $L$-functions attached to primitive Dirichlet characters, modular cusp forms, and their tensor products and symmetric squares, we write down explicit finite sets of Hecke operators that span the Hecke…

In this paper, a heuristic method to compute the Selberg zeta function for Hecke triangle groups, $G_q$ ($q>=3$) is described. The algorithm is based on the transfer operator method and an overview of the relevant background is given. We…
Let E_lambda be a Hilbert space, whose elements are functions spanned by the eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator associated with an eigenvalue lambda>0. The norm of elements in this space is given by the Petersson inner product.…
By building on former results and the cusp expansion algorithm, we construct strict transfer operator approaches for geometrically finite developable hyperbolic orbisurfaces of infinite area without cusps. Together with the cusp expansion…
We construct Hecke operators acting on Maass waveforms of integer non-zero weight and transforming according to a non-trivial multiplier system on the modular group. Using these Hecke operators we obtain multiplicativity relations for the…
