Subconvexity bounds for triple \(L\)-functions and representation theory



Abstract: We describe a new method to estimate the trilinear period on automorphic representations of PGL(2,R). Such a period gives rise to a special value of the triple L-function. We prove a bound for the triple period which amounts to a subconvexity bound for the corresponding special value of the triple L-function. Our method is based on the study of the analytic structure of the corresponding unique trilinear functional on unitary representations of PGL(2,R).


The subconvexity problem is in the core of modern analytic number theory [\textit{H. Iwaniec} and \textit{P. Sarnak}, Perspectives on the analytic theory of \(L\)-functions. GAFA 2000. Visions in mathematics -- Towards 2000. Proceedings of a meeting, Tel Aviv, Israel, August 25-September 3, 1999. Part II. Basel: Birkhäuser, 705--741 (2000; Zbl 0996.11036)]. In the paper under review the authors study the subconvexity problems for triple \(L\)--functions for \(\text{PGL}_2(\mathbb R)\) using their new method of estimating the trilinear period of automorphic representations of \(\text{PGL}_2(\mathbb R)\). Their method is based on the study of analytic structure of the corresponding unique trilinear functional on unitary representations of \(\text{PGL}_2(\mathbb R)\). Their work is based on earlier works of \textit{A. Ichino} [``Trilinear forms and the central values of triple product \(L\)-functions. Duke Math. J. 145, No. 2, 281--307 (2008; Zbl 1222.11065)], \textit{M. Harris} and \textit{S. S. Kudla}, [``The central critical value of a triple product \(L\)-function, Ann. Math. (2) 133, No. 3, 605--672 (1991; Zbl 0731.11031)], and \textit{Watson} [``Rankin triple products and quantum chaos, Ann. Math. (2) (to appear)].
