A Poincaré series on hyperbolic space (Q1693350)

Let \(L\) be the unique even unimodular lattice of signature \((25,1)\), with the scalar product \((\cdot|\cdot)\), and let \(L(2)\) denote the set of roots, i.e., the vectors in \(L\) with squared length \(2\). The paper considers the Poincaré-Weierstrass series \[ E(z,s) = \sum_{r \in L(2)}(r|z)^{-s}, \] where \(z\) is any vector in \(L \otimes \mathbb R\) with \((z|z) < 0\). This infinite series converges when \(\Re(s) > 25\), and gives rise to an automorphic function on \(H^{25}\) invariant under \(\mathrm{Aut}(L)\). The author studies the Fourier series expansion for \(E(z,s)\) and shows that \(E(z,s)\) can be analytically continued to a meromorphic function on the half plane \(\Re(s) > 25/2\).
