[For the entire collection see Zbl 0728.00008.] The authors propose conjectures relating automorphic forms on various metaplectic groups. The first conjecture starts with automorphic forms \(\tilde\varphi_ 1\) and \(\tilde\varphi_ 2\) on the metaplectic cover \(\widetilde{GL}(2)\) of \(GL(2)\), and states that there are automorphic forms \(\tilde\varphi\) on the metaplectic group \(\widetilde{GSp}(4)\) related to them. At a non-archimedean unramified place \(v\) the parameters \(\alpha_ j\), \(j=1,2\) that determine the local principal series representation connected to \(\tilde\varphi_ j\) should, taken together, be the parameters of the local representation connected to \(\tilde\varphi_ j\) should, taken together, be the parameters of the local representation conneted to \(\tilde\varphi\). Moreover, the product of the Fourier coefficients \(\tilde a(\pi_ v)\) and \(\tilde b(\pi_ v)\) of \(\tilde\varphi_ 1\) and \(\tilde\varphi_ 2\) should be a specified Whittaker coefficient at \(v\) of \(\tilde\varphi\); here \(\pi_ v\) denotes the prime at \(v\). The case \(\tilde\varphi_ 1=\tilde\varphi_ 2\) amounts to Waldspurger's theorem [see \textit{J. Waldspurger}, J. Math. Pures Appl., IX. Sér. 60, 375-484 (1981; Zbl 0431.10015)]. The other conjectures are generalizations of this one: \(n\) automorphic forms for \(\widetilde{GL}(2)\) should be related to automorphic forms for \(\widetilde{GSp}(2n)\), and two automorphic forms, one for \(\widetilde{GL}(2)\) and one for \(\widetilde{GSp}(4)\) should correspond to automorphic forms for \(\widetilde{GSp}(6)\). As evidence the equality of Euler factors is demonstrated.
