Young's shifted convolution conjecture for Maass forms

About 13 years old · traced to

Let U(z)U(z) be a Hecke–Maass cusp form with Laplace eigenvalue 1/4+T21/4+T^2, Fourier coefficients λ(n)\lambda(n), and first Fourier coefficient ρ(1)\rho(1). For fixed 0<a≤y≤b0<a\le y\le b, nonzero integer mm, and some fixed τ>0\tau>0 and R≥0R\ge0, Young's shifted convolution conjecture.

∣ρ(1)∣2∑n∈Zλ(n)λ(n+m)KiT(2π∣n∣y)KiT(2π∣m+n∣y)≪a,b,τ,RT−τ+ε∣m∣R.|\rho(1)|^2\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\lambda(n)\lambda(n+m)K_{iT}(2\pi|n|y)K_{iT}(2\pi|m+n|y)\ll_{a,b,\tau,R}T^{-\tau+\varepsilon}|m|^R.

This is a shifted-convolution estimate designed to imply cancellation in Fourier coefficients of restricted eigenfunctions and hence quantitative QUE or sup-norm bounds. The passage gives no resolution status, so the estimate remains conjectural here.
