Let FC be an abbreviation for such a Fourier coefficient (and FCs for plural). Roughly speaking, in the present paper we process FCs by iteratively using the operations: Fourier expansions, certain exchanges of Fourier expansions, and conjugations. In Theorem \\ref{general} we express any FC in terms of---degenerate in many cases---Whittaker FCs. For FCs obtained from the trivial FC by choosing a certain \"generic\" term in each Fourier expansion involved, we establish a shortcut (Main corollary \\ref{maincor}) for studying their expressions of the form in Theorem \\ref{general}. The shortcut gives considerably less information, but it remains useful on finding automorphic representations so that for appropriate choices of $\\phi$ in them, the FC is factorizable and nonzero. Then in Theorems \\ref{thD1}, \\ref{thD2}, and \\ref{thD3}, we study examples of FCs on which this shortcut applies, with many of them turning out to \"correspond\" to more than one unipotent orbit in $GL_n.$ For most of the paper, no knowledge on automorphic forms is necessary.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-11-30T18:07:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "number field", "fourier expansion", "study fourier coefficients", "automorphic forms", "adele group" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
