Abstract

Let k be a local field. Let Iv and \(I_{v^{\prime}}\) be smooth principal series representations of GLn(k) and GLn-−1(k), respectively. The Rankin-Selberg integrals yield a continuous bilinear map \(I_{v}\times I_{v^{\prime}}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}\) with a certain invariance property. We study integrals over a certain open orbit that also yield a continuous bilinear map \(I_{v}\times I_{v^{\prime}}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}\) with the same invariance property, and show that these integrals equal the Rankin-Selberg integrals up to an explicit constant. Similar results are also obtained for Rankin-Selberg integrals for GLn(k) × GLn(k).
