Quantum unique ergodicity for half-integral weight automorphic forms (Q2304850)

The authors study the analogue of the quantum unique ergodicity (QUE) conjecture for half-integral weight automorphic forms. They work under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis (GRH), and establish QUE for half-integral weight cusp forms for \(\Gamma_0(4)\) lying in Kohnen's plus subspace, for both Hecke Maaß forms and Holomorphic Hecke forms. The case of half-integral weight forms is significantly more difficult than the case of integral weight forms. In particular an analogue of Watson's formula is not known and the corresponding Fourier coefficients are not multiplicative in general. To prove their results, the authors, among other things, take elements from \textit{R. Holowinsky}'s unconditional argument [Ann. Math. (2) 172, No. 2, 1499--1516 (2010; Zbl 1214.11054)] for holomorphic integral weight forms and from \textit{K. Soundararajan}'s work [Ann. Math. (2) 170, No. 2, 981--993 (2009; Zbl 1251.11058)] on conditional upper bounds for moments of \(L\)-functions.
