Subconvexity for $GL_{3}(R)$ $L$-Functions: The Key Identity via Integral Representations

We study the subconvexity problem for $GL_{3}(R)$ $L$-functions in the t-aspect using integral representations by combining techniques employed by Michel-Venkatesh in their study of the corresponding problem for $GL_{2}$ with ideas from recent works of Munshi, Holowinsky-Nelson and Lin. Our main objective is to give - from the perspective of integral representations of $L$-functions and automorphic representation theory - a possible explanation of the origin of the "key identity" arising in the latter series of works.

The Generalization of Faulhaber's Formula to Sums of Arbitrary Complex Powers

In this paper we present a generalization of Faulhaber's formula to sums of arbitrary complex powers $m\in\mathbb{C}$. These summation formulas for sums of the form $\sum_{k=1}^{\lfloor x\rfloor}k^{m}$ and $\sum_{k=1}^{n}k^{m}$, where $x\in\mathbb{R}^{+}$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$, are based on a series acceleration involving Stirling numbers of the first kind. While it is well-known that the corresponding expressions obtained from the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula diverge, our summation formulas are all very rapidly convergent.

Rapidly Convergent Summation Formulas involving Stirling Series

This paper presents a family of rapidly convergent summation formulas for various finite sums of analytic functions. These summation formulas are obtained by applying a series acceleration transformation involving Stirling numbers of the first kind to the asymptotic, but divergent, expressions for the corresponding sums coming from the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula. While it is well-known that the expressions obtained from the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula diverge, our summation formulas are all very rapidly convergent and thus computationally efficient.
