Cusp Eigenforms and the Hall Algebra of an Elliptic Curve

Abstract

We give an explicit construction of the cusp eigenforms on an elliptic curve defined over a finite field using the theory of Hall algebras and the Langlands correspondence for function fields and $\GL_n$. As a consequence we obtain a description of the Hall algebra of an elliptic curve as an infinite tensor product of simpler algebras. We prove that all these algebras are specializations of a universal spherical Hall algebra (as defined and studied in \cite{BS} and \cite{SV1}).
