Abstract: Let pi be a cuspidal automorphic representation of PGL2(mathbbAmathbbQ) of arithmetic conductor C and archimedean parameter T, and let phi be an L2-normalized automorphic form in the space of pi. The sup-norm problem asks for bounds on |phi|infty in terms of C and T. The quantum unique ergodicity (QUE) problem concerns the limiting behavior of the L2-mass |phi|2(g),dg of phi. All previous work on these problems in the conductor-aspect has focused on the case that phi is a newform. In this work, we study these problems for a class of automorphic forms that are not newforms. Precisely, we assume that for each prime divisor p of C, the local component pip is supercuspidal (and satisfies some additional technical hypotheses), and consider automorphic forms phi for which the local components phipinpip are "minimal" vectors. Such vectors may be understood as non-archimedean analogues of lowest weight vectors in holomorphic discrete series representations of PGL2(mathbbR). For automorphic forms as above, we prove a sup-norm bound that is sharper than what is known in the newform case. In particular, if piinfty is a holomorphic discrete series of lowest weight k, we obtain the optimal bound C1/8epsilonk1/4epsilonllepsilon|phi|inftyllepsilonC1/8+epsilonk1/4+epsilon. We prove also that these forms give analytic test vectors for the QUE period, thereby demonstrating the equivalence between the strong QUE and the subconvexity problems for this class of vectors. This finding contrasts the known failure of this equivalence for newforms of powerful level.
