If f is smooth, then the integral in r converges absolutely and uniformly for z in any fixed<br />

compact subset <strong>of</strong> H [35, Satz 12.3]. Applying the completeness theorem [35, Satz 7.2 ], we<br />

have the spectral expansion for any smooth f ∈ ˜D 1 (M, ν) in the form<br />

where the sum over n ∈ N and the integral in r both converge uniformly and absolutely for<br />

By setting f(z) = y 1/2 Q m (z, s) and comparing P m (z, s) to Q m (z, s) as in [31], we can<br />

deduce the following proposition.<br />

Proposition 2.1. For any positive integer m, the Poincaré series Q m (z, s) and P m (z, s)<br />

have analytic continuation to Re(s) > 0. At s = 1/2, P m (z, s) has at most a simple pole.<br />

Furthermore, the residues <strong>of</strong> P m (z, s) at s = 1/2 generate S 1 (M, ν).<br />

Pro<strong>of</strong>. First, we will prove the analytic continuation Q m (z, s). For any m > 0, the function<br />

˜Q m (z, s) := y 1/2 Q m (z, s) is square integrable for Re(s) > 1, hence contained in ˜D 1 (M, ν). So<br />

we can write out its spectral expansion<br />

where D(z, s) and C(z, s) are the contributions from the discrete and continuous spectrum<br />

<strong>of</strong> − ˜∆ ′ 1 respectively.<br />

By Satz 5.2 and Satz 5.5 in [35], e n (z) has eigenvalue λ n ∈ [1/4, ∞) under − ˜∆ ′ 1. If<br />

λ n = 1/4, then y −1/2 e n (z) is in S 1 (M, ν). Since each eigenvalue has finite multiplicity, we<br />

can let R ≥ 0 such that {y −1/2 e n (z) : 1 ≤ n ≤ R} is an orthonormal basis <strong>of</strong> S 1 (M, ν). Note<br />

S 1 (M, ν) could be empty, in which case R = 0.<br />

For n ∈ N, let t n = √ λ n − 1/4, s n = 1/2 + it n . We can use equation (66) in [20], the<br />

bound M µ,ν (y) = O µ,ν (e y ) as y → ∞ and the vanishing property <strong>of</strong> cusp <strong>forms</strong> at all cusps<br />
