The shifted convolution problem for Siegel modular forms

The shifted convolution problem for Fourier coefficients of cusp forms has seen a lot of attention due to applications towards moments of L-functions and the subconvexity problem. However, the problem for higher rank automorphic forms (beyond GL_2) has been a notorious bottleneck towards progress on the sixth moment of the Riemann zeta function. In this talk, I will discuss recent progress on the problem for Siegel cusp forms on Sp_4. This is joint work with Wing Hong (Joseph) Leung.
