Arithmetic Homogeneous Spaces

Some Aspects of the Theta Correspondence
Erez Lapid
11:00am|S-101

A celebrated result of Waldspurger provides a relation between Fourier coefficients of half-integral weight modular forms and the central value of L-functions of the associated Shimura lift (which is a modular form of integral weight). This has a...

Periods of Automorphic Forms Over a Compact Unitary Group
Omer Offen
11:00am|S101

We use the recent developments of Jacquet in order to obtain an explicit expression for a compact unitary period of certain automorphic form on GL(n) in terms of special values of L-functions. Jacquet obtains a characterization of the image of...
