exponential decay of the Fourier series of a periodic holomorphic function on the upper half plane

120 Views Asked by At

Let $f$ be a periodic holomorphic function on the upper half plane $\mathbb H$. Here periodic means $f(z+1)=f(z)$ for all $z \in \mathbb H$.

Then $f$ is equal to its Fourier series $$ f(z)=\sum_{n \in \mathbb Z} c_n q^n, \quad q=e^{2\pi i z}. $$

Suppose the Fourier series of $f$ has the form

$$ \sum_{n \geq n_0} c_n q^n $$

for some $n_0 \in \mathbb Z$.

Is it true that

$$ \sum_{n \geq 1} c_n q^n \ll e^{-\epsilon y} $$ for some $y$, where $z=x+iy$?
