Abstract

In this paper, we partially complete the local Rankin-Selberg theory of Asai L-functions and 𝜖-factors as introduced by Flicker and Kable. In particular, we establish the relevant local functional equation at Archimedean places and prove the equality between Rankin-Selberg’s and Langlands-Shahidi’s 𝜖-factors at every place. Our proofs work uniformly for any characteristic zero local field and use as only input the global functional equation and a globalization result for a dense subset of tempered representations that we infer from work of Finis-Lapid-Müller. The results of this paper are used in (R. Beuzart-Plessis: Plancherel formula for \( \operatorname {\mathrm {GL}}_n(F)\backslash \operatorname {\mathrm {GL}}_n(E)\) and applications to the Ichino-Ikeda and formal degree conjectures for unitary groups, Preprint 2018) to establish an explicit Plancherel decomposition for \( \operatorname {\mathrm {GL}}_n(F)\backslash \operatorname {\mathrm {GL}}_n(E)\), EF a quadratic extension of local fields, with applications to the Ichino-Ikeda and formal degree conjecture for unitary groups.

The project leading to this publication has received funding from Excellence Initiative of Aix-Marseille University-A*MIDEX, a French “Investissements d’Avenir” programme.
