Pointwise bounds for $L^2$ eigenfunctions on locally symmetric spaces

Abstract

We prove pointwise bounds for $L^2$ eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on locally symmetric spaces with $\mathbb{Q}$-rank one if the corresponding eigenvalues lie below the continuous part of the $L^2$ spectrum. Furthermore, we use these bounds in order to obtain some results concerning the $L^p$ spectrum.
