Abstract

The classical Waldspurger formula, which computes periods of quaternionic automorphic forms in maximal torus, has been used in a wide variety of arithmetic applications, such as the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture in rank 0 situations. This is why this formula is considered the rank 0 analogue of the celebrated Gross-Zagier formula. On the other hand, Eichler-Shimura correspondence allows us to interpret this quaternionic automorphic form as a cocycle in higher cohomology spaces of certain arithmetic groups. In this way we can realize the corresponding automorphic representation in the etale cohomology of certain Shimura varieties. In this work we find a formula, analogous to that of Waldspurger, which relates cap-products of this cocycle and fundamental classes associated with maximal torus with special values of Rankin-Selberg L-functions.

On the factorisation of the $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function in the supersingular case

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of $F$. We prove that this new $p$-adic $L$-function interpolates values of complex imprimitive symmetric square $L$-functions, for the various specialisations of the family $F$. We use this $p$-adic $L$-function to prove a $p$-adic factorisation formula, expressing the geometric $p$-adic $L$-function attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of $f$ with itself as a the product of the $p$-adic symmetric square $L$-function of $f$ and a Kubota-Leopoldt $L$-function. This extends a result of Dasgupta in the ordinary case.

Exceptional poles of archimedean Rankin-Selberg L-functions for irreducible generic representations of GL(n,R)

For irreducible generic representations $π_1$ and $π_2$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb R)$, we prove that the notions of exceptional pole of type $1$ and type $2$ coincide at every level. When both representations are in general position, we use this identification to express the Rankin--Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π_1\timesπ_2)$ in terms of the exceptional $L$-factors attached to the irreducible constituents of their derivatives.
