Fourier coefficients attached to small automorphic representations of SLn(A)

We show that Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms attached to minimal or next-to-minimal automorphic representations of SLn(A) are completely determined by certain highly degenerate Whittaker coefficients. We give an explicit formula for the Fourier expansion, analogously to the Piatetski-Shapiro–Shalika formula. In addition, we derive expressions for Fourier coefficients associated to all maximal parabolic subgroups. These results have potential applications for scattering amplitudes in string theory.SCOPUS: ar.jDecretOANoAutActif
