Fourier coefficients of minimal and next-to-minimal automorphic representations of simply-laced groups

• In this paper, we analyze Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms on a finite cover G of an adelic split simply-laced group. Let ππ be a minimal or next-to-minimal automorphic representation of G. We prove that any η∈πη∈π is completely determined by its Whittaker coefficients with respect to (possibly degenerate) characters of the unipotent radical of a fixed Borel subgroup, analogously to the Piatetski-Shapiro–Shalika formula for cusp forms on GLnGLn . We also derive explicit formulas expressing the form, as well as all its maximal parabolic Fourier coefficient, in terms of these Whittaker coefficients. A consequence of our results is the nonexistence of cusp forms in the minimal and next-to-minimal automorphic spectrum. We provide detailed examples for G of type D5D5 and E8E8 with a view toward applications to scattering amplitudes in string theory.
