Abstract

The article generalizes an observation of Zagier and Gangl to show that the image of the spectral Eisenstein series on a general congruence subgroup of SL2(ℤ), under the Eichler-Shimura isomorphism, is defined over a cyclotomic number field. We use the same technique to generalize an invariant attached to imaginary quadratic fields in connection with the polylogarithm conjecture on the special values of L-functions. Our treatment also provides an elementary derivation of the Fourier expansion of the Maass Eisenstein series on congruence subgroups presented as a power series.
