Hecke Eigenvalues of Ikeda Lifts
Abstract
In this paper, we study the Hecke eigenvalues of Ikeda lifts. Using the spherical map for the Hecke algebra of the symplectic group, we obtain an explicit formula for the eigenvalues λF(pr). From this formula, we show that λF(pr) can be written as a polynomial in p± 1/2 with a positive leading term. Furthermore, we prove that the coefficients of this polynomial are bounded and, as a consequence, the Hecke eigenvalues λF(pr) are positive for all sufficiently large primes p.

AB - In this paper, we study the Hecke eigenvalues of Ikeda lifts. Using the spherical map for the Hecke algebra of the symplectic group, we obtain an explicit formula for the eigenvalues λ_F(p^r). From this formula, we show that λ_F(p^r) can be written as a polynomial in p^± 1/2 with a positive leading term. Furthermore, we prove that the coefficients of this polynomial are bounded and, as a consequence, the Hecke eigenvalues λ_F(p^r) are positive for all sufficiently large primes p.
