On the local Bump-Friedberg L function II

Abstract

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field with residue field of cardinality $q$. To each irreducible representation of $GL(n,F)$, we attach a local Euler factor $L^{BF}(q^{-s},q^{-t},\pi)$ via the Rankin-Selberg method, and show that it is equal to the expected factor $L(s+t+1/2,\phi_\pi)L(2s,\Lambda^2\circ \phi_\pi)$ of the Langlands' parameter $\phi_\pi$ of $\pi$. The corresponding local integrals were introduced in [BF], and studied in [M15]. This work is in fact the continuation of [M15]. The result is a consequence of the fact that if $\delta$ is a discrete series representation of $GL(2m,F)$, and $\chi$ is a character of Levi subgoup $L=GL(m,F)\times GL(m,F)$, trivial on $GL(m,F)$ embedded diagonally, then $\delta$ is $(L,\chi)$-distinguished if an only if it admits a Shalika model, a result which was only established for $\chi=1$ before.
