p-adic Asai transfer

Abstract

Let $K/Q$ be a real quadratic field. Given an automorphic representation $\pi$ for $GL_{2}/K$, let $As^{\pm}(\pi)$ denote the plus/minus Asai transfer of $\pi$ to an automorphic representation for $GL_{4}/Q$. In this paper, we construct a rigid analytic map from the universal eigenvariety of $GL_{2}/K$ to the universal eigenvariety of $GL_{4}/Q$, which at nice classical points interpolate this Asai transfer.
