Abstract

Recently R. Khan and M. Young proved a mean Lindelöf estimate for the second moment of Maass form symmetric-square $L$-functions $L(\operatorname{sym}^2 u_{j},1/2+it)$ on the short interval of length $G\gg |t_j|^{1+\epsilon}/t^{2/3}$, where $t_j$ is a spectral parameter of the corresponding Maass form. Their estimate yields a subconvexity estimate for $L(\operatorname{sym}^2 u_{j},1/2+it)$ as long as $|t_j|^{6/7+\delta}\ll t \lt (2-\delta)|t_j|$. We obtain a mean Lindelöf estimate for the same moment in shorter intervals, namely for $G\gg |t_j|^{1+\epsilon}/t$. As a corollary, we prove a subconvexity estimate for $L(\operatorname{sym}^2 u_{j},1/2+it)$ on the interval $|t_j|^{2/3+\delta}\ll t\ll |t_j|^{6/7-\delta}$.
