Modular invariants for real quadratic fields and Kloosterman sums

Abstract

We investigate the asymptotic distribution of integrals of the [math] -function that are associated to ideal classes in a real quadratic field. To estimate the error term in our asymptotic formula, we prove a bound for sums of Kloosterman sums of half-integral weight that is uniform in every parameter. To establish this estimate we prove a variant of Kuznetsov’s formula where the spectral data is restricted to half-integral weight forms in the Kohnen plus space, and we apply Young’s hybrid subconvexity estimates for twisted modular [math] -functions.
