Abstract

Let L(symj f,s) be the jth symmetric power L-function attached to a holomorphic Hecke eigencuspform f(z) for the full modular group, and \(\lambda_{\mathrm{sym}^{j}f}(n)\) denote its nth coefficient. In this paper we are able to prove that

$$\int_{1}^{x}\bigg|\sum_{n\leq y}\lambda_{\mathrm{sym}^{3}f}(n)\bigg|^{2}dy=O\bigl(x^{2}\bigr),$$

and

$$\int_{1}^{x}\bigg|\sum_{n\leq y}\lambda_{\mathrm{sym}^{4}f}(n)\bigg|^{2}dy=O\bigl(x^{\frac{11}{5}}\log x\bigr).$$
