Asymptotic L2L^2-mass conjecture for pullbacks of Saito–Kurokawa lifts

Let NN tend to infinity through odd square-free integers. For an SK lift FfSKk+1new(N)F_f\in \mathrm{SK}_{k+1}^{new}(N), let FfF_f^\circ be its pullback and let N(Ff)N(F_f) be its normalized L2L^2-mass. Write ϕ\phi for Euler's totient function, ζ(d)\zeta_{(d)} for the zeta function with Euler factors at primes dividing dd removed, and wf(p)w_f(p) for the Atkin–Lehner eigenvalue of ff at pp. Asymptotic L2L^2-mass conjecture. There exists some δ>0\delta>0 such that

N(Ff)=2ϕ(N)ζ(N)(2)NpN(1+wf(p)p)1dNζ(d)(2)ϕ(d)pd(1+1p)3(1+wf(p))2+O(Nδ).N(F_f)= \frac{2\phi(N)\zeta_{(N)}(2)}{N}\prod_{p\mid N}\left(1+\frac{w_f(p)}{p}\right)^{-1}\sum_{d\mid N}\frac{\zeta_{(d)}(2)}{\phi(d)} \prod_{p\mid d}\left(1+\frac{1}{p}\right)^3(1+w_f(p))^2 + O(N^{-\delta}).

When N=pN=p is prime, this becomes

N(Ff)=2+O(pδ).N(F_f)=2+O(p^{-\delta}).

The conjecture predicts a precise limiting size for the normalized pullback mass, refining the preceding non-vanishing question. It is proposed as an asymptotic statement as the odd square-free level grows; the source does not provide evidence of a resolution.
