Rankin-Selberg convolutions for and for principal series representations
arXiv:2109.05272
Abstract
Let be a local field. Let and be smooth principal series representations of and respectively. The Rankin-Selberg integrals yield a continuous bilinear map with a certain invariance property. We study integrals over a certain open orbit that also yield a continuous bilinear map 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 .
