The half-integral-weight Linnik–Selberg conjecture

From papers

Let k=12k=\frac12 or k=12k=-\frac12, and let u u be a weight kk multiplier system on Γ0(N)\Gamma_0(N). Let S(m,n,c,ν)S(m,n,c,\nu) be the corresponding half-integral-weight Kloosterman \sum, let m~\widetilde m and n~\widetilde n denote the associated parameters, and let τj(m,n)\tau_j(m,n) be the coefficients attached to normalized eigenforms of the weight kk hyperbolic Laplacian Δk\Delta_k. Assume that Δk\Delta_k has no eigenvalue in (316,14)\left(\frac3{16},\frac14\right). The half-integral-weight Linnik–Selberg conjecture. Under these assumptions,

NcXS(m,n,c,ν)c2X12rj=i4τj(m,n)N,ν,εm~n~Xε,\sum_{N\mid c\leq X}\frac{S(m,n,c,\nu)}{c}-2X^{\frac12}\sum_{r_j=\frac i4}\tau_j(m,n)\ll_{N,\nu,\varepsilon}|\widetilde m\widetilde nX|^\varepsilon,

where the second sum runs over normalized eigenforms of Δk\Delta_k with eigenvalue 14+rj2=316\frac14+r_j^2=\frac3{16}. This is the half-integral-weight analogue of the Linnik–Selberg spectral-gap formulation; the supplied text does not establish whether the conjectural spectral condition is known in this setting.
