Asymptotic relations among Fourier coefficients of real-analytic Eisenstein series

Following Wolpert, we find a set of asymptotic relations among the Fourier coefficients of real-analytic Eisenstein series. The relations are found by evaluating the integral of the product of an Eisenstein series phi(ir) with an exponential factor along a horocycle. We evaluate the integral in two ways by exploiting the automorphicity of phi(ir); the first of these evaluations immediately gives us one coefficient, while the other evaluation provides us with a sum of Fourier coefficients. The second evaluation of the integral is done using stationary phase asymptotics in the parameter lambda (lambda = 1/4 + r(2) is the eigenvalue of phi(ir)) for a cubic phase. As applications we find sets of asymptotic relations for divisor functions.
