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.

What motivations for automorphic forms?
Automorphic forms are ubiquitous in modern number theory and stands as a mysterious Graal lying at the intersection of many fields, if not building valuable bridges between them. However, since this a …

What computer program for automorphic forms
This question has its origins in this entertaining discussion on MO.
There are many programs (CAS) and libraries that are able to handle algebraic expressions. These are both a verification tool for …

Relation between Fourier coefficients and Satake parameters
Let $L(s)$ be an automorphic L-function (attached to a self contragredient automorphic representation on $GL(3)$), according to the following notations for $s$ of sufficiently large real part:

Relation between $\xi$-cohomological and discrete series
Sometimes, results on automorphic representations are available only under local assumptions. Typically, one could require the representation to be a $\xi$-cohomological cuspidal representation, and I …

Why and how is a representation "continuously decomposable"?
What I am asking may apply to a much more general setting and I am interested in the underlying level of generality of these statements, mostly with canonical references. However I state the question …

Formal degree of discrete series representations
Let $G$ be a locally compact unimodular group. A continuous irreducible unitary representation $\pi$ of $G$ is said to be a discrete series if its matrix coefficients (defined by $\xi^\pi_{v,w} : g \m …

How strong is the requirement of being a Gelbart-Jacquet lift?
Let $\pi$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}(3)$ over a number field $F$. I am wondering how general are Gelbart-Jacquet lifts of automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ …

Average bounds on Rankin-Selberg coefficients for modular forms
Let $f$ be a cuspidal Hecke newform of weight $k$ and level $N$, and denote by $a_f(n)$ its $n$-th Fourier coefficient. The newform $f$ is normalized so that $a_f(1) = 1$. As a consequence of Rankin-S …

On the consistency of the definition of the conductor for automorphic forms
Let $\pi$ be an irreducible admissible representation of $\mathrm{GL}_2(F)$, where $F$ is local non-archimedean. The local conductor associated to $\pi$ can be defined in two usual manners:
By its ass …
