On the Hankel Transform of Bessel Functions on Complex Numbers and Explicit Spectral Formulae over the Gaussian Field

Abstract

In this paper, on the complex field $\mathbb{C}$, we prove two integral formulae for the Hankel-Mellin transform and the double Fourier-Mellin transform of Bessel functions, both resulting the hypergeometric function. As two applications, we use the former integral formula to make explicit the spectral formula of Bruggeman and Motohashi for the fourth moment of Dedekind zeta function over the Gaussian number field $\mathbb{Q}(i)$ and to establish a spectral formula for the Hecke-eigenvalue twisted second moment of central $L$-values for the Picard group ${\mathrm{PGL}}_2(\mathbb{Z}[i])$. Moreover, we develop the theory of distributional Hankel transform on $\mathbb{C}\setminus \{0\}$.
