Abstract: Let F be an arbitrary local field. Consider the standard embedding of GL(n,F) into GL(n+1,F) and the two-sided action of GL(n,F) imes GL(n,F) on GL(n+1,F). In this paper we show that any GL(n,F) imes GL(n,F)-invariant distribution on GL(n+1,F) is invariant with respect to transposition. We show that this implies that the pair (GL(n+1,F),GL(n,F)) is a Gelfand pair. Namely, for any irreducible admissible representation (pi,E) of (GL(n+1,F), dimHom_{GL(n,F)}(E,cc) leq 1. For the proof in the archimedean case we develop several new tools to study invariant distributions on smooth manifolds.
