A SHIFTED CONVOLUTION SUM OF AND THE FOURIER COEFFICIENTS OF HECKE–MAASS FORMS II
Let $d_{3}(n)$ be the divisor function of order three. Let $g$ be a Hecke–Maass form for $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$ with $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E5}g=(1/4+t^{2})g$. Suppose that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}_{g}(n)$ is the $n$th Hecke eigenvalue of $g$. Using the Voronoi summation formula for $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}_{g}(n)$ and the Kuznetsov trace formula, we estimate a shifted convolution sum of $d_{3}(n)$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}_{g}(n)$ and show that $$\begin{eqnarray}\mathop{\sum }_{n\leq x}d_{3}(n)\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}_{g}(n-1)\ll _{t,\unicode[STIX]{x1D700}}x^{8/9+\unicode[STIX]{x1D700}}.\end{eqnarray}$$ This corrects and improves the result of the author [‘Shifted convolution sum of $d_{3}$ and the Fourier coefficients of Hecke–Maass forms’, Bull. Aust. Math. Soc.92 (2015), 195–204].
