Abstract: Let f be a non-CM Hecke eigencusp form of level 1 and fixed weight, and let lambdaf(n)n be its sequence of normalized Fourier coefficients. We show that if K/mathbbQ is any number field, and mathcalNK denotes the collection of integers representable as norms of integral ideals of K, then a positive proportion of the positive integers ninmathcalNK yield a sign change for the sequence lambdaf(n)ninmathcalNK. More precisely, for a positive proportion of ninmathcalNKcap[1,X] we have lambdaf(n)lambdaf(n)<0 where n is the first element of mathcalNK greater than n for which lambdaf(n)eq0. For example, for K=mathbbQ(i) and mathcalNK=m2+n2:m,ninmathbbZ the set of sums of two squares, we obtain ggfX/sqrtlogX such sign changes, which is best possible (up to the implicit constant) and improves upon work of Banerjee and Pandey. Our proof relies on recent work of Matom"{a}ki and Radziwill{} on sparsely-supported multiplicative functions, together with some technical refinements of their results due to the author. In a related vein, we also consider the question of sign changes along shifted sums of two squares, for which multiplicative techniques do not directly apply. Using estimates for shifted convolution sums among other techniques, we establish that for any fixed aeq0 there are ggf,epsilonX1/2epsilon sign changes for lambdaf along the sequence of integers of the form a+m2+n2leqX.
