Multiplication Kernels for the Analytic Langlands Program in Genus Zero

Abstract

We provide an explicit proof of a recent result of Gaiotto arXiv:2110.02255 which gives an explicit formula for a so-called "multiplication kernel'' $K_3(x, y, z; t)$ intertwining the action of Hecke operators and Gaudin operators in three sets of variables. This function $K_3$ arises naturally in the context of the analytic formulation of the geometric Langlands program in the genus-zero case arXiv:1908.09677, arXiv:2103.01509, arXiv:2106.05243. We also discuss how the kernel $K_3$ relates to other objects typically considered in the analytic Langlands program.
