The quaternionic Maass Spezialschar Dirichlet-series conjecture for split SO(8)\mathrm{SO}(8)

About 2 years old · traced to

Let φ\varphi be a level-one cuspidal quaternionic modular form, let Π\Pi be the irreducible automorphic representation generated by φ\varphi, and let [T1,T2]∈M2(Z)⊕2[T_1,T_2]\in\mathrm{M}_2({\mathbf Z})^{\oplus 2} be strongly primitive with T=S([T1,T2])T=S([T_1,T_2]). Let SS be a finite set of primes containing all primes dividing 8det⁡(T)8\det(T), let M2S(Z)\mathrm{M}_2^S({\mathbf Z}) denote the integer 2×22\times2 matrices with nonzero determinant whose determinants are divisible only by primes outside SS, and let EE be the quadratic field determined by the discriminant of TT. Write aφ([T1,T2])a_\varphi([T_1,T_2]) for the corresponding Fourier coefficient, and write LS(Π,Std⁡,s)L^S(\Pi,\operatorname{Std},s) and ζES(s)\zeta_E^S(s) for the partial standard LL-function and partial Dedekind zeta function. Dirichlet-series conjecture. One has

aφ([T1,T2])LS(Π,Std⁡,s)ζS(2s)ζES(s+1)=∑g∈M2S(Z)/GL⁡2(Z)aφ([T1,T2]⋅g)∣det⁡(g)∣s+ℓ−1.a_\varphi([T_1,T_2])\frac{L^S(\Pi,\operatorname{Std},s)}{\zeta^S(2s)\zeta_E^S(s+1)}=\sum_{g\in\mathrm{M}_2^S({\mathbf Z})/\operatorname{GL}_2({\mathbf Z})}\frac{a_\varphi([T_1,T_2]\cdot g)}{|\det(g)|^{s+\ell-1}}.

This conjecturally extends Andrianov's Dirichlet-series formula from Siegel modular forms on Sp⁡4\operatorname{Sp}_4 to quaternionic modular forms on split SO⁡(8)\operatorname{SO}(8), relating Fourier coefficients to the standard LL-function of Π\Pi and the Dedekind zeta function of the quadratic field attached to the discriminant. Its resolution is not specified in the supplied text.
