References for Chapter III
The Dirichlet series associated to automorphic forms on a quaternion algebra are discussed in
Godement, R., Les functions ℓ des algebres simples, I, II Seminaire Bourbaki, 1958/1959
Shimura, G., On Dirichlet series and abelian varieties attached to automorphic forms, Ann of Math., vol 76(1962)
Tamagawa, T., On ℓ — functions of a division algebra, Ann of Math., vol 77(1963).
They are also referred to, but rather obliguely, in
Selberg, A., Discontinuous groups and harmonic analysis, Proc. Int. Cong. Math. (1962).
The theory of Eisenstein series is discussed in [11], [13], [14], and [25] as well as in
Langlands, R.P., On the functional equations satisfied by Eisenstein series, Mimeographed notes.
Langlands, R.P., Eisenstein series, in Algebraic Groups and Discontinuous Subgroups, Amer. Math. Soc. (1966)
Selberg, A., Harmonic analysis and discontinuous groups in weakly symmetric Riemannian spaces with applications to Dirichlet series, Jour. Ind. Math. Soc, vol XX (1956).
[25] and [28] are of course the basic references for the Selberg trace formula. Some of its formal aspects are also described in
Langlands, R.P., Dimension of spaces of automorphic forms, in Algebraic Groups and Discontinuous Subgroups, Amer.Math. Soc. (1966)
The theorem of §16 can still be stated and proved if M is replaced by a quaternion algebra which splits everywhere that M' does. The proof is in fact rather easier. However these apparently more general theorems are immediate consequences of the proof of the original theorem. Theorems very similar to that of §16 and its extensions have been proved by Shimizu. Our methods differ little from his.
