Abstract.

We prove that the explicit formula in a symmetric case for a triple (Z, \(\tilde{Z}\), Φ) in Jorgenson-Lang’s fundamental class of functions holds for a larger class of (not necessarily differentiable or even continuous) test functions. As one of the most important applications, we show that the Selberg trace formula for a strictly hyperbolic cocompact Fuchsian group Γ is valid for a larger class of test functions. Further applications to growth estimates for the logarithmic derivative of the Selberg zeta function are considered.
