Abstract: We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a result of M. Heumos and S. Rallis our methods, unlike their purely local technique, re- lies on the theory of automorphic forms. The results of this paper together with later works by the authors imply that the family of representations studied in this paper contains all irreducible, unitary representations of the general linear group that are distin- guished by the symplectic group.


The authors show that a certain family of irreducible, unitary representations of the general linear group \(G\) over a \(p\)-adic field are distinguished by the symplectic group in \(G\). This work is a step towards proving the conjectures of [\textit{M. J. Heumos}, Models and periods for automorphic forms on \(\text{GL}_n\). Representation theory of groups and algebras. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society. Contemp. Math. 145, 135--144 (1993; Zbl 0797.22009)]. Combined with the upcoming work of the authors, ``Global mixed periods and local Klyachko models for the general linear group, they show, in particular, that this family exhausts the irreducible, unitary, \(H\)-distinguished representations of \(G\).
