Reference request: ray class group as quotient of finite ideles

Let $K$ be a number field, and write $\mathbb{A}_{K,f}^\times$ for the group of finite ideles of $K$. That is $$ \mathbb{A}_{K,f}^\times = \{(u_v)_v \in \prod_{v \nmid \infty} K_v^\times : v(u_v) = 0 \...

Spectral decomposition of idele class group $L^2(\mathbb{I}_F/ F^{\times})$

Let $F$ be a number field. Let $\mathbb{A}_F$ be the ring of adeles. The group of units of $\mathbb{A}_F$ is called the group of ideles $\mathbb{I}_F=\mathbb{A}_F^{\times}= GL_1(\mathbb{A}_F)$. The ...

Sufficient condition for the absolute convergence of Fourier series of a function on the adele quotient $\mathbb A_k/k$

Let $G$ be a compact abelian group. The unitary characters of $G$ form an orthonormal basis of $L^2(G)$, so every square integrable function $f: G \rightarrow \mathbb C$ admits a Fourier expansion $$...

What does it mean for a complex valued function on $G(\mathbb A)$ to be smooth (or smooth of compact support)?

Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over a number field $k$. Let $\mathbb A$ denote the adeles of $k$, $\mathbb A_f$ the finite adeles, and $k_{\infty} = \prod\limits_{v \mid \infty} k_v$. Here are ...

Volume of PGL(2,F) \ PGL(2, A)

Let $F$ be a global field. What is the measure of $PGL_2(F) \backslash PGL_2(\mathbb{A})$? This depends of course on the normalizations of the Haar measures on $PGL_2(F)$ and $PGL_2(\mathbb{A})$. ...
