Eigenvalues of the Laplacian for PSL (2, ℤ): Some New Results and Computational Techniques

  • Chapter
International Symposium in Memory of Hua Loo Keng

Abstract

One of the most interesting problems in the Selberg trace formalism from the standpoint of computation is the explicit determination of discrete eigenfunctions of the automorphic Laplacian. Cf. [6, 7, 17, 20] for the necessary theoretical background.
