Abstract

We define and study 'non-abelian' Poincar\'e series for the group G=SU(2,1)G=\mathrm{SU} (2,1), i.e. Poincar\'e series attached to a Stone-Von Neumann representation of the unipotent subgroup NN of GG. Such Poincar\'e series have in general exponential growth. In this study we use results on abelian and non-abelian Fourier term modules obtained in arXiv:1912.01334. We compute the inner product of truncations of these series and those associated to unitary characters of NN with square integrable automorphic forms, in connection with their Fourier expansions. As a consequence, we obtain general completeness results that, in particular, generalize those valid for the classical holomorphic (and antiholomorphic) Poincar\'e series for SL(2,R)\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R}).
