An automorphic form is a well-behaved function from a topological group $G$ to the complex numbers (or complex vector space) which is invariant under the action of a discrete subgroup $\Gamma \subset G$ of the topological group. Automorphic forms are a generalization of the idea of periodic functions in Euclidean space to general topological groups.

About Section 4.2 in 'introduction to the spectral theory of automorphic forms' by Iwaniec
Hejhal uses that $K\in L^2(F\times F)$, which follows from the continuity of $K$ and the compactness of $F$. The latter assumption appears on the first page of Hejhal's book: "Let $F$ denote a compact …

A stupid question about Automorphic forms
I am no expert in the general theory, but let me share some thoughts. In some sense (c) accounts for the fact that $K$ does not have enough open subgroups (unlike at nonarchimedan places), so that the …

Any reference on Eisenstein Series for $\Gamma_0(N)$ in $\mathrm{GL}(2)$
For detailed information I recommend "Chapter 7. Eisenstein series" in Miyake: Modular Forms (Springer Verlag, 2006).

Are theta functions cuspidal representations?
"Cusp form" means "cuspidal automorphic form" by definition. So yes, $\theta(z;u)$ is an automorphic form. But it is not a form lying in a cuspidal automorphic representation, because it is not a Heck …

Do we know absolute bounds for the norm of Satake parameters?
We don't know any upper bound for $|\alpha_{p,j}|$ that is independent of $p$. On the other hand, we do know that each $|\alpha_{p,j}|$ is bounded by $p^{1/2}$, hence if $\pi$ is an automorphic repres …

How does the solenoid structure of $\mathbb{A}/\mathbb{Q}$ lift to $PGL(2, \mathbb{A})/ PGL(...
Yes, the quotient $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb{Q})\backslash\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb{A})$ and its generalizations for other (reductive) algebraic groups is a complicated object, and this is to a large extent …

Fourier Transform of Eisenstein Series - Sum of Divisors or Ramanujan Sums?
I think all your questions are answered by the following calculation (assume $m\geq 1$ and $\Re(s)>1$):
$$ \sum_{c=1}^\infty\frac{r_m(c)}{c^{2s}} = \sum_{c=1}^\infty\frac{1}{c^{2s}}\sum_{\substack{\te …

Hecke-module structure implicit in definition of automorphic forms in Borel-Jacquet's Corval...
The definition on the top of page 195 in B-J's article (in Corvallis 1) is ok, because $f\ast\xi$ is well-defined for any smooth $f:G(\mathbf{A})\to\mathbf{C}$ and any $\xi\in H$.
It suffices to ver …

On the pole of local L-function
No, you are not right. The local $L$-function $L(s,\chi_v)=(1-\chi_v(\omega)q^{-s})^{-1}$ has infinitely many poles, namely the solutions of the equation $q^s=\chi_v(\omega)$. All these poles are simp …

Newform of a cuspidal Automorphic Representation
Yes, the classical version of this adelic newform is the newform in the sense of Atkin-Lehner, and vice versa. See Casselman: On some results of Atkin and Lehner (Math. Ann. 201 (1973), 301-314), espe …

Local component of global irreducible representation of GL_2(A_F)
Not quite. The local component $\pi_v$ is one of four types.
If $\pi_v$ belongs to the tempered principal series, then it is of the form $\rho(\chi_1,\chi_2)$, where $\chi_1$ and $\chi_2$ are arbit …

Orbits of SL_n acting on matrices of determinant p
To complement Qiaochu Yuan's answer, check out Lemma 9.3.2 in Goldfeld's book Automorphic Forms and L-functions for the group GL(n,R). On the two sides of (9.3.3) you can see the decompositions of the …

Why is the cuspidal spectrum discrete?
This result is due to Gelfand, Graev, Piatetski-Shapiro and has a short proof. I suggest you read Bump: Automorphic forms and representations, Prop. 3.2.3, pp. 285-289.
Let me switch to $G=\mathrm{P …

Jacquet Langlands correspondence
In what sense is the Weyl law different for congruence subgroups and cocompact groups?
At any rate, the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence is not a bijection between the two cuspidal spectra. More pre …

Taylor's theorem is about regular algebraic representations $\pi$. Most representations are not algebraic in any sense (cf. my answer to this question), hence they are not connected to any Galois repr …
