On certain \(L\)-series of Rankin-Selberg type associated to Siegel modular forms of degree 2 (Q1127562)

Let \(F\) and \(G\) be Siegel modular forms of genus 2 and weight \(k\) resp. \(l\) with \(k>l\), \(k\equiv l\text{ mod }2\) and Fourier-Jacobi coefficients \(\phi_m\) resp. \(\psi_m\). Let \(h\) be a non-zero elliptic cusp form of weight \(k-l\) and consider \[ D_{F,G}(s,h):= \sum^\infty_{m= 1}\langle \phi_m,h\cdot \psi_m\rangle m^{-s}. \] The analytic properties of this Dirichlet series were derived by \textit{W. Kohnen} [Math. Ann. 288, 697-711 (1990; Zbl 0697.10026)]. The author shows that \(\zeta(2s- 2k+4)\cdot D_{F,G}(s, h)\) is equal to a linear combination of some spinor zeta functions provided that \(F\) is a Hecke eigenform and \(G\) belongs to the Maaß space. Moreover, the analytic properties of two types of twists with Dirichlet characters are investigated. Then rationality properties at \(s= k-2\) are derived. Finally, the author considers the Saito-Kurokawa correspondence for congruence subgroups and Siegel cusp forms whose Fourier coefficients involve special values of \(D_{F,G}(s,h)\).
