On Certain Period Relations for Cusp Forms on GLn

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let pi be a regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representation of mGLn(mathbbAF) for a number field F. We consider certain periods attached to pi. These periods were originally defined by Harder when n=2, and later by Mahnkopf when F=mathbbQ. In the first part of the paper we analyze the behaviour of these periods upon twisting pi by algebraic Hecke characters. In the latter part of the paper we consider Shimura's periods associated to a modular form. If phichi is the cusp form associated to a character chi of a quadratic extension, then we relate the periods of phichin to those of phichi, and as a consequence give another proof of Deligne's conjecture on the critical values of symmetric power L-functions associated to dihedral modular forms. Finally, we make some remarks on the symmetric fourth power L-functions.
