A question on the averages of Kloosterman sums

Sorry to disturb. Recently, I encountered a puzzle on the sums involving two Kloosterman sums. That is, For any $h, q_1,q_2\in \mathbb{N}$ with $(q_1,q_2)=1$ and $Q>1$, how two get a bound $$\sum_{...

What is the sum operation on torsors induced by Weil uniformization?

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field, $G$ a reductive group, and $C$ a curve. The algebraic version of the Weil uniformization theorem (see e.g. arXiv:1511.06271v2) says that groupoid of $G$-...

Possible Context for this "Siegel-like" Modular Form Construction?

The following construction of something very nearly a Siegel modular form of degree 2 arose in my research. I'm outside the worlds of automorphic forms and number theory, so I'm wondering if it ...

About different cohomology theories used to study Shimura varieties

The classical theory of Eichler-Shimura realizes the space of cusp forms of certain weights and levels in the parabolic cohomology of modular curves, which is the image of the cohomology with compact ...
