A spectral theorem for compact representations and non-unitary cusp forms

Number Theory 2024-01-30 v2

Abstract

We show that a compact representation of a semisimple Lie group has an orthogonal decomposition into finite length representations. This generalises and simplifies a number of more special spectral theorems in the literature. We apply it to the case of cusp forms, thus settling the spectral theory for the space of non-unitary twisted cusp forms.
