We present a novel four-variable character sum identity, which serves as a pivotal arithmetic input for the functional equations of automorphic L-functions. This identity can also be interpreted as a twisted, non-archimedean counterpart to Weber-type integrals from the theory of special functions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-10-15T02:16:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F66", "11F72", "11L05", "11F12" ], "keywords": [ "functional equations", "novel four-variable character sum identity", "pivotal arithmetic input", "spectral reciprocity", "special functions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
