The non-spherical sup-norm problem for $\mathrm{GL}(n)$ and generalized spherical functions

RESUMO

We solve the sup-norm problem for minimal weight vectors in an arbitrary cuspidal representation $\pi$ of $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{Z})\backslash\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ with a uniform power saving bound in terms of the archimedean data of $\pi$, including its spectral parameters and the dimension of its minimal $K$-type. As a key ingredient, we establish new uniform decay bounds for generalized spherical functions.
