In [31] we defined a regularized analytic torsion for quotients of the symmetric space $\operatorname{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})/\operatorname{SO}(n)$ by arithmetic lattices. In this paper we study the limiting behavior of the analytic torsion as the lattices run through sequences of congruence subgroups of a fixed arithmetic subgroup. Our main result states that for principal congruence subgroups and strongly acyclic flat bundles, the logarithm of the analytic torsion, divided by the index of the subgroup, converges to the $L^{2}$-analytic torsion.

AbstractWe prove a uniform upper estimate on the number of cuspidal eigenvalues of the Γ-automorphic Laplacian below a given bound when Γ varies in a family of congruence subgroups of a given reductive linear algebraic group. Each Γ in the family is assumed to contain a principal congruence subgroup whose index in Γ does not exceed a fixed number. The bound we prove depends linearly on the covolume of Γ and is deduced from the analogous result about the cut-off Laplacian. The proof generalizes the heat-kernel method which has been applied by Donnelly in the case of a fixed lattice Γ.

Hecke groups are an important class of discrete subgroups of PSL(2, ℝ), which play an important role in the study of Dirichlet series. Subgroups with finite index of a Hecke group, which are called congruence subgroups, are often used. Let q be a positive integer with [Formula: see text]. For the Hecke group [Formula: see text], the structures of principal congruence subgroups and normal congruence subgroups of level m are investigated in many papers, where m is a prime or a power of an odd prime. In this paper, we deal with the case that the level m is a power of 2.

AbstractLet G be a subgroup of PSL(2, R) which is commensurable with PSL(2, Z). We say that G is a congruence subgroup of PSL(2, R) if G contains a principal congruence subgroup /overline Γ(N) for some N. An algorithm is given for determining whether two congruence subgroups are conjugate in PSL(2, R). This algorithm is used to determine the PSL(2, R) conjugacy classes of congruence subgroups of genus-zero and genus-one. The results are given in a table.
