Period functions for Maass wave forms. I.
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: Recall that a Maass wave form on the full modular group Gamma=PSL(2,Z) is a smooth gamma-invariant function u from the upper half-plane H = {x+iy | y>0} to C which is small as y o infty and satisfies Delta u = lambda u for some lambda in C, where Delta = y^2(d^2/dx^2 + d^2/dy^2) is the hyperbolic Laplacian. These functions give a basis for L_2 on the modular surface GammaH, with the usual trigonometric waveforms on the torus R^2/Z^2, which are also (for this surface) both the Fourier building blocks for L_2 and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian. Although therefore very basic objects, Maass forms nevertheless still remain mysteriously elusive fifty years after their discovery; in particular, no explicit construction exists for any of these functions for the full modular group. The basic information about them (e.g. their existence and the density of the eigenvalues) comes mostly from the Selberg trace formula: the rest is conjectural with support from extensive numerical computations.
This paper investigates a connection (first explored by the first author [Invent. Math. 127, No. 2, 271--306 (1997; Zbl 0922.11043)]) between Maass wave forms for \(\text{SL}_2(\mathbb Z)\) and solutions to a certain three term functional equation. We list a special case of their results here.NEWLINENEWLINETheorem: Let \(s\in \mathbb C\) with \(\text{Re}(s)= \frac{1}{2}\). Then there is an isomorphism between the space of Maass cusp forms with eigenvalue \(s(1-s)\) on \(\Gamma\) and the space of real-analytic solutions of the three-term functional equation NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \psi(x) = \psi(x+1)+ (x+1)^{-2s} \psi \biggl(\frac{x}{x+1}\biggr) NEWLINE\]NEWLINE on \(\mathbb R_+\), which satisfy the growth condition NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \psi(x)=\text{o}(1/x) \;(x\rightarrow 0), \qquad \psi(x)=\text{o}(1) \;(x\rightarrow \infty).
