Introduction to Automorphic Forms for $GL(n,\BZ)\ltimes \BZ^{(m,n)}$

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the notion of automorphic forms for $GL(n,\BZ)\ltimes \BZ^{(m,n)}$ and discuss invariant differential operators on the Minkowski-Euclid space. The group $GL{n,\BR}\ltimes \BR^{(m,n)}$ is the semidirect product of $GL(n,\BR)$ and the additive group $\BR^{(m,n)}$ and is {\it not} a reductive group. The Minkowski-Euclid space is the quotient space of $GL(n,\BR)\ltimes \BR^{(m,n)}$ by $O(n,\BR)$. The Minkowski-Euclid space is an important non-symmetric homogeneous space geometrically and number theoretically. We present some open problems to be solved in the future.
