An Explicit Construction of CAP Representations of $Sp_{4n}(\mathbb A)$ associated to Non-trivial Automorphic Characters of Orthogonal Groups $O_{2n}(\mathbb A)$

Abstract

Piatetski-Shapiro the concept of CAP representations was introduced, elucidating the Saito-Kurokawa representations of $PGSp(4)$. In this paper we present a family of CAP representations for the group $Sp_{4n}(\mathbb A)$ through the application of the theta correspondence and Howe duality to the reductive dual pair $(O_{2n}(\mathbb A) , Sp_{4n}(\mathbb A))$. The construction involves constructing a non-trivial automorphic character of $O_{2n}(\mathbb A)$, lifting it to an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation $\pi=\otimes'_{\nu}\pi_{\nu}$ of $Sp_{4n}(\mathbb A)$, and providing a detailed characterization of the representations $\pi_{\nu}$ of $Sp_{4n}(\mathbb F_\nu)$ at almost all places $\nu$.
