In this paper we consider a class of nonanalytic automorphic functions which were first mentioned to A. Selberg by C. L. Siegel. These functions have Fourier coefficients which are closely connected with the Fourier coefficients of analytic automorphic forms, and they are also eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator derived from the hyperbolic metric. We shall show how this latter property gives new results in the classical theory of automorphic forms.
