A sieve method for shifted convolution sums (Q1000600)

For a Hecke-Maass cusp form \(u\) with Hecke eigenvalues \(\lambda(n)\) and a fixed integer \(l\neq 0\) the author proves that \[ \sum_{n\leq x}|\lambda(n)\lambda(n+l)| \ll_{u,l}\frac{x}{(\log x)^\delta} \] for some absolute positive constant \(\delta\). He applies upper-bound sieve techniques instead of Kloosterman sum analysis.
