Abstract
Hafner and Stopple proved a conjecture of Zagier on the asymptotic expansion of a Lambert series involving Ramanujan’s tau function with the main term involving the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Recently, Chakraborty et. al. have extended this result to any cusp form over the full modular group and also over any congruence subgroup. The aim here is to study the asymptotic behaviour of a similar Lambert series involving the coefficients of Maass cusp forms over the full modular group.
