... [ updated 08 Aug '13]
Generalized Levi-Sobolev spaces relevant to proving that spaces of functions described by augmenting a Laplacian to a Hamiltonian with (what some people call) a "confining potential", with the goal of proving that various otherwise-defined function spaces are "nuclear Frechet" in the sense of having a Schwartz kernel theorem apply. (See, for example, Notes... )
- Some automorphic spectral theory for GL(n,Z):
- [ Discreteness of pseudo-cuspforms
for GL(n)]
... [ updated 28 Jul '14]...
and more: discreteness of space of L2 functions with
all constant terms vanishing above a fixed height, after
Lax-Phillips. Thus, this also sets up an extension of Y. Colin de Verdiere's
argument to meromorphic continuation of cuspidal-data Eisenstein
series (as Jacquet's argument in Moeglin-Waldspurger).
- Complement: [ Discreteness of
spectrum of Laplacian on compact Riemannian manifolds ]
... [ updated 19 Jun '14]...
Proving that the resolvent is compact self-adjoint, thus allowing
application of the spectral theorem for such operators. Proof
reduces to the case of products of circles, and Sobolev spaces via
Fourier series.
- [Most-continuous automorphic spectrum
for GL(n)]
... [ updated 03 Jan '12]...
Example discussion of most-continuous automorphic spectrum for
PGL(n,Z), by expressing minimal-parabolic
pseudo-Eisenstein series as integrals of minimal-parabolic Eisenstein
series. Plancherel is proven for this part
of the spectrum, modulo fuller spectral decomposition. Supporting material includes
meromorphic continuation of minimal-parabolic Eisenstein series,
functional equations, constant terms, review of GL(2), sample
bibliography of prior art.

groups to orthogonal groups]

O(3), O(4), O(5), O(6) over the complex numbers, and also O(p,q) with
p+q≤ 6.
- [ Linear independence of nth roots]
... [ updated 27 Dec '11]...
Surprisingly palatable, relatively elementary argument
for an assertion exemplified by
Q(√2, √3, √5)
= Q(√2+ √3+ √5).
Slightly more generally for an n-th root of unity ζ,
with a,b,c relatively prime integers,
Q(ζ)(n√a, n√b, n√c)
= Q(ζ)(n√a+n√b+n√c).
Prior art dates at least to Hasse in 1933.
- [Symmetrization maps]
... [ updated 26 Jul '11]...
Small categorical-algebra exercise characterizing symmetrization maps
on universal enveloping algebras of Lie algebras, thereby proving
independence of coordinates, etc.
- [Pseudo-cuspforms, pseudo-Laplacians ]
... [ updated 12 Aug '11]...
(A few typos fixed...) Pseudo-cuspforms have constant
term eventually vanishing, and are eventually
eigenfunctions for the Laplacian. Existence of certain
pseudo-cuspforms is equivalent to vanishing of zeta and
L-functions. Unfortunately, not being genuine eigenfunctions, this
does not immediately prove the Riemann
Hypothesis. Nevertheless, circa 1979 there was some excitement due
to confusion about these things. The confusion was dispelled by
Hejhal, who also observed the role of pseudo-cuspforms, and noted
several serious obstacles. Example computations included.
- [ Explication of Colin-de-Verdiere's proof
of meromorphic continuation of Eisenstein series]
... [ updated 12 Mar '12]...
A considerable elaboration of Colin-de-Verdiere's argument, hopefully
useful to people who are not practiced modern analysts. Supporting
material included as appendices. Incidentally proves
discreteness of cuspforms from the same compactness argument
(Lax-Phillips' form of a Rellich lemma) used to obtain the
meromorphic continuation. Added March 2012: a few unsurprising but
necessary details about uniform Sobolev-norm estimates on smooth
tails of functions.

- [ An iconic error ]
... [ updated 22 Sep '09]
... Debunking the (demonstrably false) claim that (without considerable qualification)
truncated Eisenstein series are eigenfunctions for
invariant operators. This (false, without considerable
qualification) claim continues to be (needlessly, sloppily) invoked to give
(incorrect) proofs of Maass-Selberg relations. I first heard this
claim in 1980, and was amazed to hear it recently (2009). It's an
icon? Yes, certain truncated Eisenstein series
are new/exotic eigenfunctions of certain variants of Laplacians. But/and the details of that qualification are hugely important, if we want to have proofs rather than heuristics. (See other later notes of mine
about related matters.)

producing spectral identities involving second moments. Appendices
prove convergence in detail, evaluate integrals, etc., in response to
referee comments. This version is slightly edited by comparison to the
version on arXiv, too. The original (below) short version may succeed

- [ Poles of half-degenerate Eisenstein series]
... [ updated 03 Jul '06]
... Combine very classical application of Poisson summation with
Godement-Jacquet integral representation of L-functions to give a good
estimate on poles of some very special (partly cuspidal-data, partly
degenerate-data) Eisenstein series on GL(n). Treating these as
(iterated) residues of cuspidal-data Eisenstein series gives a
significantly worse estimate on poles. This class of Eisenstein series
is very special, but occurs in applications.
- [ Discrete decomposition of cuspforms]
... [ updated 05 Jun '09]
... We prove the Gelfand-Graev-PS theorem: spaces of square-integrable
cuspforms on reductive groups (best adelized) decompose discretely,
with finite multiplicities, by proving that the operators naturally induced by
test functions on the group are compact . The argument
roughly follows Godement's 1966 Boulder-conference proof, with some
critical details filled in.

... Evaluation of archimedean zeta integrals arising in decomposition
of holomorphic Siegel-type Eisenstein series restricted from larger to
smaller unitary groups. [This paper itself does not explain the larger
context. A version of it will appear in the AIM conference volume on
Eisenstein series, likely as a too-long appendix to a paper of
Michael Harris' ,
namely
"A simple proof of rationality of Siegel-Weil Eisenstein series"
[http://www.math.jussieu.fr/~harris/SW.pdf]
which does explain something of the context. ]
- [Geometric homology versus group homology]
... [ updated 14 Sep '05]
... We want to prove that the singular homology of quotients X/Gamma
is the group homology of Gamma, under some mild conditions on X (such
as that X be a ball). We recap work of Hopf, Hurewicz,
Eilenberg-MacLane: homology of spaces with vanishing higher
homotopy is determined by the first homotopy group,
giving a functor on groups. Then recall Dold's
result that removes the requirement that the spaces be
CW-complexes. Historical notes.
- [ Lie algebra sl(2)
version of Segal-Shale-Weil (oscillator) representation ]
... [ updated 27 Apr '17]
... Setting up Lie algebra action of sl(2) on Schwartz
functions: archimedean case of Weil representation. The benefits of
looking at the Lie algebra rather than Lie group action are compelling
in this example. Amusing connection to spherical
harmonics... Invocation of subrepresentation theorem to study
irreducible quotients in positive-definite case.
- [Buildings, Bruhat decompositions, etc.]
... [ updated 02 Jul '05]
... Development of basic theory of buildings, Bruhat
decompositions, aiming especially at simple discussion of
Iwahori-Hecke algebra and Borel-Matsumoto theorem. Graphics
meant to suggest proof techniques. (Small novelty is the realization
that one need not presume the combinatorial group theory of Coxeter
groups.)

... Computing natural intertwining operators among

smooth vectors.

zeta(2k).

This principle was used by Klingen c. 1960 in application to pullbacks
of Hilbert modular Eisenstein series to elliptic modular forms, to
analyze the constant terms (certain values of L-functions). It is very
easy to give incorrect proofs of this.
- [ Godement's criterion for convergence of

... Proving (for Sp(n,R) and U(p,q)) the apparently apocryphal result
that for sufficiently high lowest K-type rho the universal

irreducible. This implies that rho determines the isomorphism class of
the (g,K)-module, and also that the whole representation space is the
tensor product of the enveloping algebra U(p+) with rho. The latter
freeness property is essential in a treatment of Maass-Shimura
operators.
