On the Stable Transfer for $\mathrm{Sym}^{n}$ Lifting of $\mathrm{GL}_{2}$

Abstract

Following the paradigm of \cite{MR3117742}, we are going to explore the stable transfer factors for $\mathrm{Sym}^{n}$ lifting from $\mathrm{GL}_{2}$ to $\mathrm{GL}_{n+1}$ over any local fields $F$ of characteristic zero with residue characteristic not equal to $2$. When $F=\mathbb{C}$ we construct an explicit stable transfer factor for any $n$. When $n$ is odd, we provide a reduction formula, reducing the question to the construction of the stable transfer factors when the $L$-morphism is the diagonal embedding from $\mathrm{GL}_{2}(\mathbb{C})$ to finitely many copies of $\mathrm{GL}_{2}(\mathbb{C})$ under mild assumptions on the residue characteristic of $F$. With the assumptions on the residue characteristic, the reduction formula works uniformly over any local fields of characteristic zero, except that for $p$-adic situation we need to exclude the twisted Steinberg representations.
