Remarks on modular symbols for Maass wave forms (Q716053): Difference between revisions

From abstract: In this paper I introduce modular symbols for Maass wave cusp forms. They appear in the guise of finitely additive functions on the boolean algebra generated by intervals with nonpositive rational ends, with values in analytic functions (pseudomeasures in the sense of Manin and Marcolli). We explain the basic issues and draw an analogy with the \(p\)-adic case. We then construct the new modular symbols, followed by the related Levy-Mellin transform. This work builds on the fundamental study of \textit{J. Lewis} and \textit{D. Zagier} [Ann. Math. (2) 153, No. 1, 191--258 (2001; Zbl 1061.11021)].
