Abstract.

Let f be a Maass cusp form for SL3(ℤ) with Fourier coefficients . We consider the sum , where . A bound better than is proved to be valid for certain transcendental numbers . This bound improves Miller's result (2006) for these α. For α close to a rational number with , the smooth sum is further proved to decay rapidly. This extends a result of Booker (2000 and 2005) on a smooth sum of without the exponential function. These bounds manifest a strange vibration nature of Maass cusp forms. The main techniques include rational approximation of real numbers, a Voronoi summation formula for SL3(ℤ), and its asymptotic expansion.
