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.

Corvallis 1979 proceedings

Given the importance of the proceedings, I leave a link to the copy at Library Genesis: A. Borel and W. Casselman (Editors) Automorphic Forms, Representations and L-functions (1979)

Existence of a Hilbert modular form of parallel weight 6

In this paper, van der Geer and Zagier come across a concrete Hilbert cusp form of weight $6$ on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathcal{O})$, namely $$f=-16(x+x^{-1})^3 (q+(27x^3-39x-39x^{-1}+27x^{-3})q^2+(285x^6-7 …

Fourier expansion of automorphic forms

I don't see the relation between the first sentence and the question, so perhaps I'm missing something, but the answer to the question is yes, regardless. Fourier expansion is a very important tool i …

Is the twisted symmetric fifth power $L$-function holomorphic?

This is definitely an open problem. For a very recent reference of $Sym^m\pi$ being known only for $m \leq 4$ ($\pi$ arbitrary cuspidal), see: Huixue Lao, Mark McKee, Yangbo Ye, Asymptotics for cus …

Known degrees of L-functions F and G whose Rankin-Selberg convolution is an L-function

An automorphic L-function $L(\pi,s)$ belongs to the Selberg class if and only if the generalized Ramanujan conjecture for $\pi$ is known. This includes two important cases: Hecke characters and holom …

Reference for the proof of Langlands conjecture for $GL_n$ over function fields

It depends on what you mean by reference, but this might work Gérard Laumon, "The Langlands Correspondence for Function Fields following Laurent Lafforgue" (1999) It is a brief sketch of the ever …

Non-algebraic Hecke characters

Algebraic Hecke characters are ubiquitous in modern number theory. They are in 1-1 correspondence with one dimensional complex Galois representations, and in some precise sense they are the building b …

No Siegel-Landau zeros for $\mathrm{GL}(n)$

The problem of non-existance of Siegel-Landau zeros seems to be uncharacteristically easier for cuspidal automorphic representations $\pi$ on $\mathrm{GL}(n)$ if $n\geq2$. We have in fact: There a …

Automorphic factorization of Dedekind zeta functions

It is well known that for abelian number fields, the factorization of its Dedekind zeta function goes like this: $$\zeta_K(s)=\zeta(s)\prod_{\chi \neq 1} L(s,\chi)$$ with the Dirichlet characters di …

Even Galois representations "mod p"

Consider an irreducible $\mathrm{mod}$ $p$ representation: $$\rho: \mathrm{Gal}(\bar{\mathbb{Q}}/\mathbb{Q})\to\mathrm{GL}_2(\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p)$$ If $\rho$ is odd, it was conjectured by Serre in th …
