Hi, I have a short question concerning the spectral theory of automorphic forms. What is the main property of the unipotent group $N$, which consist of matrices in the form \begin{pmatrix} 1 & t \\ 0 &1 \end{pmatrix}
in $GL(2)$, which provides that the cuspidal spectrum decomposes discretely?
Intuition: Why is the cuspidal spectrum discrete?
