Title:

Local-global principles for periods of automorphic forms

Abstract:


In a famous paper, Waldspurger proved a local-global principle for a cuspidal automorphic representation of an inner form of GL(2), to support a non-vanishing toric period integral. This was generalized in two directions. The first direction is the famous global Gan-Gross-Prasad conjectures, proven in many cases, but maybe not yet for special orthogonal groups. The second, which is in a sense more natural, leads to the so-called Guo-Jacquet conjecture for automorphic representations of inner forms of GL(n), so far proven under local restrictions. I will present a local-global principle for non-vanishing of period integrals attached to several symmetric subgroups of inner forms of GL(n), in particular generalizing that of Waldspurger. This in particular gives a complete proof of the direct implication of the Guo-Jacquet conjecture. This work is a collaboration with Omer Offen and Chang Yang.

      Curves of genus three and Picard modular forms

      Abstract:Some Shimura varieties can be interpreted as moduli spaces of curves. In such cases this can be used to get information about modular forms. We discuss a ball quotient related to moduli of curves of genus three. We study cohomology of local systems and calculate the traces of Hecke operators by counting points on curves over finite fields. We also construct all vector-valued Picard mo...
