Local and global Maass relations (Q2412549): Difference between revisions

This paper characterizes the irreducible, admissible, spherical representations of GSp(4,\(F\)) (where \(F\) is a \(p\)-adic field) that occur in certain CAP representations in terms of relations satisfied by their spherical vector in a special Bessel model. These local relations are analogous to the Maass relations satisfied by the Fourier coefficients of Siegel modular forms of degree 2 in the image of the Saito-Kurokawa lifting. It shows how the classical Maass relations can be deduced from the local relations in a representation theoretical way, without recourse to the construction of Saito-Kurokawa lifts in terms of Fourier coefficients of half-integral weight modular forms or Jacobi forms. As an additional application, the paper gives one more characterization of Saito-Kurokawa lifts involving a certain average of Fourier coefficients.
