Coherent cohomology, limits of discrete series, and Galois conjugation (Q1325146): Difference between revisions

Coherent cohomology groups of Shimura varieties admit rational structures invariant under the Hecke algebra. This paper focuses on automorphic forms either defining such coherent cohomology classes or being related to such forms via known cases of Langlands principle of functoriality. The action of automorphisms of \(\mathbb{C}\) on coherent cohomological cuspidal automorphic forms is analyzed. One result asserts that cuspidal automorphic representations with infinity type in the discrete series or nondegenerate limits of discrete series define nontrivial coherent cohomology classes. In view of the rational structure rationality results are obtained for such automorphic forms. As an application, in conjunction with the principle of functoriality, forms on GL(4) admitting motivically odd polarizations are discussed.
