AbstractWe derive upper Gaussian bounds for the heat kernel on complete, noncompact locally symmetric spaces M=Γ∖X with nonpositive curvature. Our bounds contain the Poincaré series of the discrete group Γ and therefore we also provide upper bounds for this series.

AbstractThis paper contains two essentially independent results in the invariant theory of finite groups. First we prove that, for any faithful representation of a non-trivial p-group over a field of characteristic p, the ring of vector invariants ofmcopies of that representation is not Cohen-Macaulay for m ≥ 3. In the second section of the paper we use Poincaré series methods to produce upper bounds for the degrees of the generators for the ring of invariants as long as that ring is Gorenstein. We prove that, for a finite non-trivial group G and a faithful representation of dimension n with n > 1, if the ring of invariants is Gorenstein then the ring is generated in degrees less than or equal to n(|G| − 1). If the ring of invariants is a hypersurface, the upper bound can be improved to |G|.

We consider a space X of polynomial type and a self-adjoint operator on L2(X) which is assumed to have a heat kernel satisfying second-order Gaussian bounds. We prove that any power of the operator has a heat kernel satisfying Gaussian bounds with a precise constant in the Gaussian. This constant was previously identified by Barbatis and Davies in the case of powers of the Laplace operator on RN. In this case we prove slightly sharper bounds and show that the above-mentioned constant is optimal.

AbstractWe prove upper bounds for geodesic periods of automorphic forms over general rank one locally symmetric spaces. Such periods are integrals of automorphic forms restricted to special totally geodesic cycles of the ambient manifold and twisted with automorphic forms on the cycles. The upper bounds are in terms of the Laplace eigenvalues of the two automorphic forms, and they generalize previous results for real hyperbolic manifolds to the context of all rank one locally symmetric spaces.
