The Exterior Cube L-Function for GL(6)

  • Published:
Compositio Mathematica

Abstract

We construct a Rankin Selberg integral to represent the exterior cube L function L(π,Λ3,s) of an automorphic cuspidal module π of GL6(\(\mathbb{A}\) F ) (where F is a number field). We determine the poles of this L function and find period conditions for the special value L(π,Λ3,1/2). We use the Siegal Weil formula. We also state an analogue of the Gross–Prasad conjecture concerning a criterion for the nonvanishing of L(π,Λ3,1/2).
