I will present a generalization of this theorem to eigenfunctions of the full ring of invariant differential operators on a locally symmetric space, as well as a theorem on the restriction of eigenfunctions to maximal flat subspaces. Time permitting, I will discuss ways in which these bounds can be improved using inputs from number theory. ---------------------------------------------- Seminar website: http://www.maths.usyd.edu.au/u/SemConf/Geometry/
