During 1934-1936, W. L. Ferrar investigated the relation between summation formulae and Dirichlet series with functional equations, inspired by Voronoi’s works (1904) on summation formula with respect to the numbers of divisors. In [11] A. Weil showed that the automorphic properties of theta series are expressed by generalized Poisson summation formulae with respect to the so-called Weil representation. On the other hand, T. Kubota, in his study of the reciprocity law in a number field, defined a generalized theta series and a generalized Weil type representation of SL(2, C) and obtained similar results to those of A. Weil (1970-1976, [5], [6], [7]). The methods, used by W. L. Ferrar and T. Kubota, to obtain (generalized Poisson) summation formulae depend similarly on functional equations of Dirichlet series (attached to the generalized theta series).

Abstract An upper bound of the dimension of vector spaces of generalized theta-series corresponding to some nondiagonal quadratic forms in any number of variables is established. In a number of cases, an upper bound of the dimension of the space of theta-series with respect to the quadratic forms of five variables is improved and the basis of this space is constructed.

AbstractWe generalize dual reductive pairs by using reductive groups that are not necessarily subgroups of symplectic groups and construct the corresponding theta-series liftings for certain types of automorphic forms. We also discuss connections of such generalized theta-series liftings with families of abelian varieties parametrized by an arithmetic variety.

Abstract The upper bound of dimension of vector spaces of generalized theta-series corresponding to some ternary quadratic forms is established. In a number of cases, the dimension of vector spaces of generalized theta-series is established and bases of these spaces are constructed.

In this paper, we use the elementary methods and properties of classical Gauss sums to study the calculation problems of some mean values of character sums of special polynomials, and obtained several interesting calculation formulae for them. As an application, we give a criterion for determining that 2 is the cubic residue for any odd prime p.

Abstract Given a closed geodesic on a compact arithmetic hyperbolic surface, we show the existence of a sequence of Laplacian eigenfunctions whose integrals along the geodesic exhibit nontrivial growth. Via Waldspurger’s formula we deduce a lower bound for central values of Rankin-Selberg L-functions of Maass forms times theta series associated to real quadratic fields.
