Maass, generalizing the classical elliptic modular forms. We'll introduce their spectral theory, in particular the trace formulas, and illustrate their relevance to number theory.

Title: Introduction to the spectral theory of automorphic forms

Speaker: Wenzhi Luo

Abstract: The square-integrable eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces are important examples of automorphic forms introduced by H. Maass, generalizing the classical elliptic modular forms. We'll introduce their spectral theory, in particular the trace formulas, and illustrate their relevance to number theory.
