The L4-norm problem for Hecke–Maaß eigenforms

Let Γ=SL2(Z)\Gamma=\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}), let H\mathbb{H} be the upper half-plane, and let gB0(Γ)g\in\mathcal{B}_0(\Gamma) be a Hecke–Maaß eigenform normalised by g,g=1\langle g,g\rangle=1. The L4L^4-norm problem. As tgt_g\to\infty,

Γ\Hg(z)4dμ(z)=3vol(Γ\H)+o(1).\int_{\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}}|g(z)|^4\,d\mu(z)=\frac{3}{\operatorname{vol}(\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H})}+o(1).

This is the second nontrivial case of the Gaussian moments conjecture and is closely related to quantum unique ergodicity. The source states that an unconditional proof appears quite difficult; the conjecture therefore remains open.
