A note on the Rankin-Selberg method for Siegel cusp forms of genus 2 (Q1293938)

\textit{W. Kohnen} and \textit{N.-P. Skoruppa} [Invent. Math. 95, 541-558 (1989; Zbl 0665.10019)] introduced a Dirichlet series \(D_{F,G}(s)\) associated with a pair of Siegel cusp forms \((F,G)\) of genus 2 and weight \(k\). It is defined by the Petersson scalar products of the Fourier-Jacobi coefficients of \(F\) and \(G\). If the first Fourier-Jacobi coefficient of \(F\) is not zero, then \(G\) can be chosen such that \(D_{F,G}(s)\) is proportional to the spinor zeta function of \(F\). In the paper under review the author applies these methods to the case that \(F\) and \(G\) are of level \(N\geq 1\).
