These notes are based on three lectures given by the second author at Copenhagen University (October 2009) and at Aarhus University, Denmark (December 2009). We mostly present here a survey of results of Dieter Mayer on relations between…
In this paper, we consider Hecke triangle groups $\Gamma_w$ for $w>2$ and associated infinite-volume orbifolds $\Gamma_w \backslash \mathbb{H}$. We show that the Selberg zeta function $Z_{\Gamma_w}(s)$ can be approximated for $s \in…
Let $\mathcal{L}(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_n n^{-s}$ be an $L$-function in the Selberg class, and $q_{\mathcal{L}}$ its conductor. Let $\ell_0(\mathcal{L})$ be the constant term of the Laurent expansion of $\mathcal{L}'/\mathcal{L}$ at…
Let $j(z)$ be the modular $j$-invariant function. Let $\tau$ be an algebraic number in the complex upper half plane $\mathbb{H}$. It was proved by Schneider and Siegel that if $\tau$ is not a CM point, i.e.,…
We study the eta invariants of Dirac operators and the regularized determinants of Dirac Laplacians over hyperbolic manifolds with cusps. We follow Werner M"uller and use relative traces to define these spectral invariants. We show the…
Classical Hecke operators on Maass forms are unitarely equivalent, up to a commuting phase, to completely positive maps on II$_1$ factors, associated to a pair of isomorphic subfactors, and an intertwining unitary. This representation is…
We develop an explicit theory of formal modular forms over arbitrary number fields $K$, as functions of modular points. We define modular points for $\Gamma_0({\mathfrak n})$ and $\Gamma_1({\mathfrak n})$, where the level ${\mathfrak n}$ is…
Let $F$ be a totally real number field, $\mathcal{O}_{F}$ the ring of integers, $\mathfrak a$ and $\mathfrak I$ integral ideals and let $\chi$ a character of $\mathbb{A}_F^\times/F^\times$. For each prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ in…
In this article, we prove an omega-result for the Hecke eigenvalues $\lambda_F(n)$ of Maass forms $F$ which are Hecke eigenforms in the space of Siegel modular forms of weight $k$, genus two for the Siegel modular group $Sp_2(\Z)$. In…
We introduce an alternate set of generators for the Hecka algebra, and give an explicit formula for the action of these operators on Fourier coefficients. With this, we compute the eigenvalues of Hecke operators acting on average Siegel…
Utilizing the theory of the Poisson transform, we develop some new concrete models for the Hecke theory in a space $M_{\lambda}(N)$ of Maass forms with eigenvalue $1/4-\lambda^2$ on a congruence subgroup $\Gamma_1(N)$. We introduce the…
We show meromorphic extension and analyze the divisors of a Selberg zeta function of odd type $Z_{\Gamma,\Sigma}^{\rm o}(\lambda)$ associated to the spinor bundle $\Sigma$ on odd dimensional convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds…
Matrix representations of Hecke operators on classical holomorphical cusp forms and corresponding period polynomials are well known. In this article we define Hecke operators on period functions and show that they correspond to the Hecke…
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) agree with the behavior of eigenvalues near 1 of a classical compact group (as the…
The $GL_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$ Hecke-Baxter operator was introduced as an element of the $O_{\ell+1}$-spherical Hecke algebra associated with the Gelfand pair $O_{\ell+1}\subset GL_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$. It was specified by the property to…
Hybrid Euler-Hadamard products have previously been studied for the Riemann zeta function on its critical line and for Dirichlet L-functions in the context of the calculation of moments and connections with Random Matrix Theory. According…
In this paper, we have proved Selberg's Central Limit Theorem for $GL(3)$ $L$-functions associated with the Hecke-Maass cusp form $f$. Moreover, we have proved the independence of the automorphic $L$-functions.
We define graded hyper-algebras of vector-valued Siegel modular forms, which allow us to study tensor products of the latter. We also define vector-valued Hecke operators for Siegel modular forms at all places of ${\mathbb Q}$, acting on…
For cofinite Kleinian groups, with finite-dimensional unitary representations, we derive the Selberg trace formula. As an application we define the corresponding Selberg zeta-function and compute its divisor, thus generalizing results of…
In this paper a theory of Hecke operators for higher order modular forms is established. The definition of cusp forms and attached L-functions is extended beyond the realm of parabolic invariants. The role of representation theoretic…
