This is basically a summary of [Mu]. The focus of the paper is the explicit computation of Hecke operators for period functions. In particular we compute the matrix representations of the 2nd Hecke operator on period functions for the full…

For the group PSL(2,Z) it is known that there is an isomorphism between polynomial eigenfunctions of the transfer operator for the geodesic flow and the Eichler cohomology in the theory of modular forms. In a recent paper by Chang and Mayer…

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 study the space of period polynomials associated with modular forms of integral weight for finite index subgroups of the modular group. For the modular group, this space is endowed with a pairing, corresponding to the Petersson inner…

The eigenfunctions with eigenvalues 1 or -1 of the transfer operator of Mayer are in bijective correspondence with the eigenfunctions with eigenvalue 1 of a transfer operator connected to the nearest integer continued fraction algorithm.…

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…

We characterize the space of new forms for $\Gamma_0(m)$ as a common eigenspace of certain Hecke operators which depend on primes $p$ dividing the level $m$. To do that we find generators and relations for a $p$-adic Hecke algebra of…

By a transfer operator approach to Maass cusp forms and the Selberg zeta function for cofinite Hecke triangle groups, M. M\"oller and the author found a factorization of the Selberg zeta function into a product of Fredholm determinants of…

Let S_{w+2}(\Gamma_0(N)) be the vector space of cusp forms of weight w+2 on the congruence subgroup \Gamma_0(N). We first determine explicit formulas for period polynomials of elements in S_{w+2}(\Gamma_0(N)) by means of Bernoulli…

Let E_lambda be the Hilbert space spanned by the eigenfunctions of the non-Euclidean Laplacian associated with a positive discrete eigenvalue lambda. In this paper, the trace of Hecke operators T_n acting on the space E_lambda is computed…

We show how there is a natural action on the cohomology groups attached to certain subgroups of GL_n(F) of the Hecke operators defined as elements in an adelic double coset algebra. Our main result is, that if a system of eigenvalues for…

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.…

Suppose that $\Gamma$ is a continuous and self-adjoint Hankel operator on $L^2(0, \infty)$ and that $Lf=-(d/dx(a(x)df/dx))+b(x)f(x)$ with $a(0)=0$. If $a$ and $b$ are both quadratic, hyperbolic or trigonometric functions, and $\phi$…

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…
