Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic distribution of a class of multiplicative functions over arithmetic progressions without the Ramanujan conjecture. We also apply these results to some interesting arithmetic functions in automorphic context, such as coefficients of automorphic L-functions, coefficients of their Rankin–Selberg.
