On Fourier coefficients for Siegel cusp forms of degree $n$
O. M. Fomenko
Abstract:
Let
$F(Z)$ be a cusp form of integral weight
$k$ relative to the Siegel modular group
$Sp_n(\mathbb{Z})$ and let
$f(N)$ be its Fourier coefficient with index
$N$. Making use of Rankin's convolution, one proves the estimate
$$
f(N)=O\Bigl(|N|^{\frac k2-\frac17\delta(n)}\Bigr), \qquad (1)
$$
where
$$
\delta(n)=\frac{n+1}{(n+1)\Bigl(zn+\frac{1+(-1)^n}{2}\Bigr)+1}
$$
Previously, for
$n\geq2$ one has known Raghavan's estimate
$$
f(N)=O(|N|^{\frac k2})
$$
In the case
$n=2$, Kitaoka has obtained a result, sharper than (1), namely:
$$
f(N)=O\Bigl(|N|^{\frac k2-\frac14+\varepsilon}\Bigr) \qquad (2)
$$
At the end of the paper one investigates specially the case
$n=2$. It is shown that in some cases the result (2) can be improved to, apparently, unimprovable estimates if one assumes some analogues of the Petersson conjecture. These results lead to a conjecture regarding the optimal estimates of
$f(N)$,
$n=2$.
