The self-duality (with respect to the Fourier-transform) of the theta distribution \(\theta\) on the adeles gives rise to the fact that automorphic forms can be constructed by applying \(\theta\) to coefficients of the metaplectic representations. This is the theory of classical theta series. In the paper under consideration the author defines a ``multiplicative version of the theta distribution, which, restricted to a suitable space of test functions, also is self-dual. This distribution is used to derive analogs for the classical Weil-Siegel formula in the case of the groups \(\text{SL}_ 2\) and \(\text{GL}_ 2\). The Weil-Siegel formula expresses a special value of an Eisenstein series (which still is a function on the group) as an integral of the automorphic form used to define the Eisenstein series against a theta series [\textit{S. Kudla} and \textit{S. Rallis}, J. Reine Angew. Math. 387, 1-68 (1988; Zbl 0644.10021)]. In the present context the analog of this is a formula that gives a special value of an Eisenstein series at the identity element as the multiplicative theta-distribution applied to the automorphic form.
