Kurlberg–Rudnick's IID conjecture for quadratic-form-indexed Hecke matrix elements

About 17 years old · traced to

Let A∈SL2(Z)A\in SL_2(\mathbb{Z}) satisfy A≡I(mod2)A\equiv I\pmod 2, let NN tend to infinity through primes, and let ψjj=1N\\{\psi_j\\}_{j=1}^N be a Hecke basis. Define Q(n)=ω(n,nA)Q(n)=\omega(n,nA) and, for ν∈Z\nu\in\mathbb{Z} for which Q(n)=νQ(n)=\nu, define

Yν(ψ)=N(−1)n1n2⟨TN(n)ψ,ψ⟩.Y_\nu(\psi)=\sqrt N(-1)^{n_1n_2}\langle T_N(n)\psi,\psi\rangle.

Quadratic-form IID conjecture. For every ν∈Z\nu\in\mathbb{Z}, Yν(ψ)Y_\nu(\psi) has limiting distribution equal to that of tr⁡(Uν)\operatorname{tr}(U_\nu), where UνU_\nu is Haar-random in SU(2)SU(2); moreover, the sequence

…,Y−3(ψ),Y−2(ψ),Y−1(ψ),Y1(ψ),Y2(ψ),Y3(ψ),…\dots,Y_{-3}(\psi),Y_{-2}(\psi),Y_{-1}(\psi),Y_1(\psi),Y_2(\psi),Y_3(\psi),\dots

converges to a sequence of independent identically distributed random variables. This is a symmetry-reduced formulation of the Hecke fluctuation conjecture, with the quadratic form indexing the natural symmetry classes; the limiting IID assertion remains open.
