We prove two results on converse theorems for Hilbert modular forms over totally real fields of degree $r>1$. The first result recovers a Hilbert modular form (of some level) from an $L$-series satisfying functional equations twisted by all…
A Lie group G is called a trace class group if for every irreducible unitary representation R of G and every C-infinity function f with compact support the operator R(f) is of trace class. In this note we prove that the semidirect product…
In an important paper, Zagier proved that certain half-integral weight modular forms are generating functions for traces of polynomials in the $j$-function. It turns out that Zagier's work makes it possible to algorithmically compute…
We study the action of the derived Hecke algebra on the space of weight one forms. By analogy with the topological case, we formulate a conjecture relating this to a certain Stark unit. We verify the truth of the conjecture numerically, for…
Let $p \geq 5$ be a prime and for $a, b \in \mathbb{F}_{p}$, let $E_{a,b}$ denote the elliptic curve over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ with equation $y^2=x^3+a\,x + b$. As usual define the trace of Frobenius $a_{p,\,a,\,b}$ by \begin{equation*}…
We explore an idea of Conrey and Li of expressing the Selberg trace formula as a Dirichlet series. We describe two applications, including an interpretation of the Selberg eigenvalue conjecture in terms of quadratic twists of certain…
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…
It is known that there is a one-to-one correspondence between equivalence classes of primitive indefinite binary quadratic forms and primitive hyperbolic conjugacy classes of the modular group. Due to such a correspondence, Sarnak obtained…
The trace or the $0$th Hochschild--Mitchell homology of a linear category $\mathcal{C}$ may be regarded as a kind of decategorification of $\mathcal{C}$. We compute traces of the two versions $\dot{\mathcal{U}}$ and $\dot{\mathcal{U}}^*$ of…
These lecture notes provide a basic introduction to Selberg's trace formula. We discuss the simplest possible case: the spectrum of the Laplacian on a compact Riemannian surface of constant negative curvature. (To appear in Springer LNP.)
Let $F \in S_{k_1}(\Gamma^{(2)}(N_1))$ and $G \in S_{k_2}(\Gamma^{(2)}(N_2))$ be two Siegel cusp forms over the congruence subgroups $\Gamma^{(2)}(N_1)$ and $\Gamma^{(2)}(N_2)$ respectively. Assume that they are Hecke eigenforms in…
We show that the space of trace-class operators on a Hilbert module over a commutative C*-algebra, as defined and studied in earlier work of Stern and van Suijlekom (Journal of Functional Analysis, 2021), is completely isometrically…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $\mathbb{Q}$. In this paper, we will stabilize the local trace formula, in particular, we construct the explicit form of the spectral side of stable local trace formula in the Archimedean case,…
A new approach to the Selberg trace formula, and more precisely to its spectral side, is developed. The approach relies on a notion of "Plancherel decomposition" of "asymptotically finite functions", and may generalize to obtain a general…
Let $(P_d)$ be any prime of $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ of degree $d$ and consider the space of Drinfeld cusp forms of level $P_d$, i.e. for the modular group $\Gamma_0(P_d)$. We provide a definition for oldforms and newforms of level $P_d$.…
We provide a generalization of an algebraic linear combination for the trace of certain elliptic modular forms, and through specializing the expression at a suitable pair consisting of an elliptic curve over algebraic number fields and its…
Let $f$ and $f'$ be genus $2$ cuspidal Siegel paramodular newforms. We prove that if their Hecke eigenvalues $a_p$ and $a_p'$ satisfy a non-trivial polynomial relation $P(a_p, a_p') = 0$ for a set of primes $p$ of positive density, then $f$…
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the traces of Hecke operators for spherical discrete automorphic representations of fixed level on general split reductive groups over $\mathbb{Q}$. Under a condition on the analytic…
Let F be a number field and $\widetilde{\mathrm{Sp}}(2n)$ be the metaplectic covering of Weil of $\mathrm{Sp}(2n, \mathbb{A}_F)$. We stabilize the elliptic semi-simple terms of the genuine part of trace formula for…
Our principal aim in the present article is to establish a uniform hybrid bound for individual values on the critical line of Hecke $L$-functions associated with cusp forms over the full modular group. This is rendered in the statement that…
