Doubling Constructions and Tensor Product $L$-Functions: the linear case

Abstract

We present an integral representation for the tensor product $L$-function of a pair of automorphic cuspidal representations, one of a classical group, the other of a general linear group. Our construction is uniform over all classical groups, and is applicable to all cuspidal representations; it does not require genericity. The main new ideas of the construction are the use of generalized Speh representations as inducing data for the Eisenstein series and the introduction of a new (global and local) model, which generalizes the Whittaker model. This is the first in a series of papers, treating symplectic and even orthogonal groups. Subsequent papers (in preparation) will treat odd orthogonal and general spin groups, the metaplectic covering version of these integrals, and applications to functoriality coming from combining this work with the converse theorem (and independent of the trace formula).
