Abstract

Let \(2\le j\le 8\) be any fixed positive integer. Let f be a normalized primitive holomorphic cusp form of even integral weight for the full modular group \(\Gamma =SL(2,\mathbb {Z})\). Denote by \(\lambda _{\text {sym}^{2}f}(n)\) the nth normalized coefficient of the Dirichlet expansion of the symmetric square L-function \(L(\text {sym}^{2}f,s)\) attached to f. In this paper, we are interested in the average behaviour of the following summatory function

$$\begin{aligned} \sum _{\begin{array}{c} a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} + d^{2}\le x \\ (a,b,c,d)\in \mathbb {Z}^{4} \end{array}} \lambda _{\text {sym}^{2}f}^{j}(a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}+d^{2}) \end{aligned}$$

for \(x\ge x_{0}\)(sufficiently large), which improves and generalizes the recent works of Sharma and Sankaranarayanan (Res Number Theory 8:19, 2022, Rend Circ Mat Palermo II Ser 72:1399–1416, 2023).
