Abstract
Let \(\pi _1,\pi _2, \ldots , \pi _k\) be cuspidal automorphic representations of \(\mathrm{GL}(2)\) or \(\mathrm{GL}(3)\) with trivial conductor and trivial central character, and \(\pi :=\pi _1\boxplus \pi _2\boxplus \cdots \boxplus \pi _k\) be the isobaric representation associated to them. We establish that there exists a positive constant \(\vartheta _k <1\) such that for any \(\alpha \in {\mathbb {R}}\), any \(x \ge 1\) and any positive \(\varepsilon \), one has
where the implied constant does not depend on \(\alpha \). We also consider some isobaric representations containing the trivial representation. As an application, we consider averages of shifted convolution sums of the type
where a(n) is any arithmetic function.
