On the coefficients of symmetric power -functions
Abstract
We study the signs of the Fourier coefficients of a newform. Let be a normalized newform of weight for . Let be the th Fourier coefficient of . For any fixed positive integer , we study the distribution of the signs of , where runs over all prime numbers. We also find out the abscissas of absolute convergence of two Dirichlet series with coefficients involving the Fourier coefficients of cusp forms and the coefficients of symmetric power -functions.
