MOMENTS AND HYBRID SUBCONVEXITY FOR SYMMETRIC-SQUARE L-FUNCTIONS

Abstract: We establish sharp bounds for the second moment of symmetric-square L-functions attached to Hecke Maass cusp forms uj with spectral parameter tj, where the second moment is a sum over tj in a short interval. At the central point s=1/2 of the L-function, our interval is smaller than previous known results. More specifically, for |tj| of size T, our interval is of size T1/5, while the previous best was T1/3 from work of Lam. A little higher up on the critical line, our second moment yields a subconvexity bound for the symmetric-square L-function. More specifically, we get subconvexity at s=1/2+it provided |tj|6/7+deltale|t|le(2−delta)|tj| for any fixed delta>0. Since |t| can be taken significantly smaller than |tj|, this may be viewed as an approximation to the notorious subconvexity problem for the symmetric-square L-function in the spectral aspect at s=1/2.
