On the Ramanujan conjecture for automorphic forms over function fields I. Geometry

Let $G$ be a split semisimple group over a function field. We prove the temperedness at unramified places of automorphic representations of $G$, subject to a local assumption at one place, stronger than supercuspidality, and assuming the existence of cyclic base change with good properties. Our method relies on the geometry of $\operatorname{Bun}_G$. It is independent of the work of Lafforgue on the global Langlands correspondence.

Asymptotic behavior of supercuspidal representations and Sato-Tate equidistribution for families

We establish properties of families of automorphic representations as we vary prescribed supercuspidal representations at a given finite set of primes. For the tame supercuspidals constructed by J.-K. Yu we prove the limit multiplicity property with error terms. Thereby we obtain a Sato-Tate equidistribution for the Hecke eigenvalues of these families. The main new ingredient is to show that the orbital integrals of matrix coefficients of tame supercuspidal representations with increasing formal degree on a connected reductive $p$-adic group tend to zero uniformly for every noncentral semisimple element.

Large values of cusp forms on GL(n)

We establish the transition behavior of Jacquet-Whittaker functions on split semi-simple Lie groups. As a consequence, we show that for certain finite volume Riemannian manifolds, the local bound for normalized Laplace eigenfunctions does not hold globally.

The mirror conjecture for minuscule flag varieties

We prove Rietsch's mirror conjecture that the Dubrovin quantum connection for minuscule flag varieties is isomorphic to the character D-module of the Berenstein-Kazhdan geometric crystal. The idea is to recognize the quantum connection as Galois and the geometric crystal as automorphic. We reveal surprising relations with the works of Frenkel-Gross, Heinloth-Ng\^o-Yun, and Zhu on Kloosterman sheaves. The isomorphism comes from global rigidity results where Hecke eigensheaves are determined by their local ramification. As corollaries we obtain combinatorial identities for counts of rational curves and the Peterson variety presentation of the small quantum cohomology ring.

Asymptotics and local constancy of characters of p-adic groups

In this paper we study quantitative aspects of trace characters $Θ_π$ of reductive $p$-adic groups when the representation $π$ varies. Our approach is based on the local constancy of characters and we survey some other related results. We formulate a conjecture on the behavior of $Θ_π$ relative to the formal degree of $π$, which we are able to prove in the case where $π$ is a tame supercuspidal. The proof builds on J.-K.~Yu's construction and the structure of Moy-Prasad subgroups.

Families of L-functions and their Symmetry

In [90] the first-named author gave a working definition of a family of automorphic L-functions. Since then there have been a number of works [33], [107], [67] [47], [66] and especially [98] by the second and third-named authors which make it possible to give a conjectural answer for the symmetry type of a family and in particular the universality class predicted in [64] for the distribution of the zeros near s=1/2. In this note we carry this out after introducing some basic invariants associated to a family.

Sato-Tate equidistribution for families of Hecke-Maass forms on SL(n,R)/SO(n)

We establish the Sato-Tate equidistribution of Hecke eigenvalues on average for families of Hecke--Maass cusp forms on SL(n,R)/SO(n). For each of the principal, symmetric square and exterior square L-functions we verify that the families are essentially cuspidal and deduce the level distribution with restricted support of the low-lying zeros. We also deduce average estimates toward Ramanujan.

Sato-Tate theorem for families and low-lying zeros of automorphic $L$-functions

We consider certain families of automorphic representations over number fields arising from the principle of functoriality of Langlands. Let $G$ be a reductive group over a number field $F$ which admits discrete series representations at infinity. Let $^{L}G=\hat G \rtimes \mathrm{Gal}(\bar F/F)$ be the associated $L$-group and $r:{}^L G\to \mathrm{GL}(d,\mathbb{C})$ a continuous homomorphism which is irreducible and does not factor through $\mathrm{Gal}(\bar F/F)$. The families under consideration consist of discrete automorphic representations of $G(\mathbb{A}_F)$ of given weight and level and we let either the weight or the level grow to infinity. We establish a quantitative Plancherel and a quantitative Sato-Tate equidistribution theorem for the Satake parameters of these families. This generalizes earlier results in the subject, notably of Sarnak [Progr. Math. 70 (1987), 321--331.] and Serre [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 10 (1997), no. 1, 75--102.]. As an application we study the distribution of the low-lying zeros of the associated family of $L$-functions $L(s,π,r)$, assuming from the principle of functoriality that these $L$-functions are automorphic. We find that the distribution of the 1-level densities coincides with the distribution of the 1-level densities of eigenvalues of one of the Unitary, Symplectic and Orthogonal ensembles, in accordance with the Katz-Sarnak heuristics. We provide a criterion based on the Frobenius--Schur indicator to determine this Symmetry type. If $r$ is not isomorphic to its dual $r^\vee$ then the Symmetry type is Unitary. Otherwise there is a bilinear form on $\mathbb{C}^d$ which realizes the isomorphism between $r$ and $r^\vee$. If the bilinear form is symmetric (resp. alternating) then $r$ is real (resp. quaternionic) and the Symmetry type is Symplectic (resp. Orthogonal).

On Fields of rationality for automorphic representations

This paper proves two results on the field of rationality $\Q(π)$ for an automorphic representation $π$, which is the subfield of $\C$ fixed under the subgroup of $\Aut(\C)$ stabilizing the isomorphism class of the finite part of $π$. For general linear groups and classical groups, our first main result is the finiteness of the set of discrete automorphic representations $π$ such that $π$ is unramified away from a fixed finite set of places, $π_\infty$ has a fixed infinitesimal character, and $[\Q(π):\Q]$ is bounded. The second main result is that for classical groups, $[\Q(π):\Q]$ grows to infinity in a family of automorphic representations in level aspect whose infinite components are discrete series in a fixed $L$-packet under mild conditions.

Large values of modular forms

We show that there are primitive holomorphic modular forms f of weight two and arbitrary large level N such that $|f(z)| \gg N^{1/4}$ for some point z. Thereby we disprove a folklore conjecture that the sup-norm of such forms would be as small as $N^{o(1)}$.

First moment of Rankin-Selberg central L-values and subconvexity in the level aspect

Let $1\le N<M$ with $N$ and $M$ coprime and square-free. Through classical analytic methods we estimate the first moment of central $L$-values $ L(1/2,f\times g) $ where $f\in S^*_k(N)$ runs over primitive holomorphic forms of level $N$ and trivial nebentypus and $g$ is a given form of level $M$. As a result, we recover the bound $ L(1/2,f\times g) \ll_\varepsilon (N + \sqrt{M}) N^\varepsilon M^\varepsilon $ when $g$ is dihedral. The first moment method also applies to the special derivative $L'(1/2,f\times g)$ under the assumption that it is non-negative for all $f\in S^*_k(N)$.

Non-split Sums of Coefficients of GL(2)-Automorphic Forms

Given a cuspidal automorphic form $π$ on $\GL_2$, we study smoothed sums of the form $\sum_{n\in\mathbb{N}} a_π(n^2+d)W(\frac{n}{Y})$. The error term we get is sharp in that it is uniform in both $d$ and $Y$ and depends directly on bounds towards Ramanujan for forms of half-integral weight and Selberg eigenvalue conjecture. Moreover, we identify (at least in the case where the level is square-free) the main term as a simple factor times the residue as $s=1$ of the symmetric square L-function $L(s,\Msym^2π)$. In particular there is no main term unless $d>0$ and $π$ is a dihedral form.

Minoration du rang des courbes elliptiques sur les corps de classes de Hilbert

Soit $E/\BmQ$ une courbe elliptique. Soit $D<0$ un discriminant fondamental suffisamment grand. Si $E(\bar{\BmQ})$ contient des points de Heegner de discriminant $D$, ces points engendrent un sous-groupe dont le rang est supérieur à $\pabs{D}^{0.0009}$. Ce résultat est en accord avec la conjecture de Birch et Swinnerton-Dyer. --- Let $E/\BmQ$ be an elliptic curve. Let $D<0$ be a sufficiently large fundamental discriminant. If $E(\bar{\BmQ})$ contains Heegner points of discriminant $D$, these points generate a subgroup of rank greater than $\pabs{D}^{0.0009}$. This result is in agreement with the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer.

Remarks on a special value of the Selberg zeta function

Let $\CmZ_{Y_0(N)}$ be the constant term of the logarithmic derivative at $s=1$ of the Selberg zeta function of the modular curve $Y_0(N)$. Jorgenson and Kramer established the bound $\CmZ_{Y_0(N)}=O_ε(N^ε)$, $ε>0$ by relating it to geometric invariants. In this article we give, for $N$ prime, another proof via $L$-functions and exponential sums improving on a previous approach by Abbes-Ullmo and Michel-Ullmo. We further derive a power of $\log N$ bound along the same line.

A non-split sum of coefficients of modular forms

We shall introduce and study certain truncated sums of Hecke eigenvalues of $GL_2$-automorphic forms along quadratic polynomials. A power saving estimate is established and new applications to moments of critical $L$-values associated to quadratic fields are derived. An application to the asymptotic behavior of the height of Heegner points and singular moduli is discussed in details.
