Nonsplit quantum unique ergodicity conjecture for Bianchi Maaß forms

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let EE be an imaginary quadratic field of class number 11, let Γ\Gamma be the relevant arithmetic subgroup, and let (ϕj)(\phi_j) be an orthonormal basis of Bianchi Maaß cusp forms on SL2(OE)\H3\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathcal{O}_E)\backslash\mathbb{H}^3, with spectral parameter tjt_j. Restrict ϕj\phi_j from H3\mathbb{H}^3 to Γ\H\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H} and define the signed measure dμj(z)≔ϕj(z) dμ(z)d\mu_j(z)\coloneqq\phi_j(z)\,d\mu(z). For H∈Cb(Γ\H)H\in C_b(\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}), let Dj(H)\mathcal{D}_j(H) be the discrepancy defined from this signed measure as in the Hilbert case, and set

C(ϕj)≔(3+∣tj∣)4.C(\phi_j)\coloneqq(3+|t_j|)^4.

Nonsplit Bianchi quantum unique ergodicity conjecture. If H∈Cb(Γ\H)H\in C_b(\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}) is fixed, then

lim⁡C(ϕj)→∞C(ϕj)18Dj(H)=0.\lim_{C(\phi_j)\to\infty}C(\phi_j)^{\frac18}\mathcal{D}_j(H)=0.

This is the imaginary-quadratic, or Bianchi, analogue of the preceding nonsplit conjecture. It predicts quantitative dissipation of the restrictions to the modular surface as the analytic conductor grows, and the statement remains open.
