# Modular forms, quaternion algebras, and special values of L-functions

Thesis

Daghigh, H.

### Source:

Mathematics and Statistics, McGill University, p.79 (1997)

### Abstract:

Let f be a cusp form of weight 2 and level N. Let K be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant - D, and d an ideal class of K. We obtain precise formulas for the special values of the L-functions associated to the Rankin convolution off and a theta series associated to the ideal class A, in terms of the Petersson scalar product of f with the theta series associated to an Eichler order in a positive definite quaternion algebra. Our work is an extension of the work done by Gross [7] il. The central tools used in this thesis are Rankin's method and a reformulation of Gross of work of Waldspurger concerning central critical values.

Abstract:
In the talk, I will show how to extract exponentially decaying eigenfunctions out of the basic and standard single energy multiscale analysis introduced by Frohlich and Spencer in 1983. There will be much more.

# Nodal lines for random eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the torus

Speaker:
Igor Wigman (CRM and McGill)
Location:
CRM, Room 5340
Abstract:
We study the volume of nodal sets for eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the standard torus in two or more dimensions. We consider a sequence of eigenvalues $\normalsize 4\pi^2\lambda$ with growing multiplicity $\normalsize N\to\infty$, and compute the expectation and variance of the volume of the nodal set with respect to a Gaussian probability measure on the eigenspaces. We show that the expected volume of the nodal set is $\normalsize const\sqrt{\lambda}$. Our main result is that the variance of the volume normalized by $\normalsize \sqrt{\lambda}$ is bounded by $\normalsize O(1/\sqrt{N})$, so that the normalized volume has vanishing fluctuations as we increase the dimension of the eigenspace.
