Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms and integrable discrete series (Q265889): Difference between revisions

Let \(G\) be the group of \({\mathbb R}\)-points of a semisimple algebraic group \({\mathcal G}\) defined over \({\mathbb Q}\). Assume that \(G\) is connected, non-compact, with non-empty discrete series. Let \(\Gamma\) be a finite covolume discrete subgroup in \(G\), write \(C^\infty(\Gamma\backslash G)\) for the vector space of \(\Gamma\)-invariant smooth functions on \(G\). The goal of the paper under review is to study Fourier coefficients of Poincaré series attached to matrix coefficients of integrable discrete series which are \(K\)-finite. More precisely, attached to \(K\)-finite matrix coefficients \(\varphi\) of integrable discrete series \(\pi\) of \(G\) is the Poincaré series: \[ P(\varphi)(x)=\sum_{\gamma\in\Gamma}\varphi(\gamma x)\quad x\in G. \] Suppose that \(U\) is the group of \({\mathbb R}\)-points of the unipotent radical of a proper \({\mathbb Q}\)-parabolic \({\mathcal P}\subset{\mathcal G}\), and \(\chi:U\rightarrow {\mathbb C}^*\) is a unitary character of \(U\). The \((\chi,U)\)-Fourier coefficient of a function \(f\in C^\infty(\Gamma\backslash G)\) is defined as: \[ {\mathcal F}_{(\chi,U)}(f)(x)=\int_{U\cap\Gamma\backslash U}f(ux)\overline{\chi(u)}du. \] The main results of the paper consist in: {\parindent=6mm \begin{itemize}\item[-] a computation of \({\mathcal F}_{(\chi,U)}(P(\varphi))\), \item[-] new cases when \(P(\varphi)\neq 0\), \item[-] a construction of \((\chi,U)\)-generic automorphic realizations of integrable discrete series for \(G\). \end{itemize}}
