$L$-packets and the generic Arthur packet conjectures for even unitary similitude groups

We establish the generic local Langlands correspondence by showing the equality of the Langlands-Shahidi $L$-functions and Artin $L$-functions in the case of even unitary similitude groups. As an application, we prove both weak and strong versions of the generic Arthur packet conjectures in the cases of even unitary similitude groups and even unitary groups. We further describe (not necessarily generic) $L$-packets for even unitary similitude groups and establish their expected properties, including Shahidi's conjecture, the finiteness of $L$-packets, and other related results.

The Langlands-Shahidi method for pairs via types and covers

We compute the local coefficient attached to a pair $(π_1,π_2)$ of supercuspidal (complex) representations of the general linear group using the theory of types and covers à la Bushnell-Kutzko. In the process, we obtain another proof of a well-known formula of Shahidi for the corresponding Plancherel constant. The approach taken here can be adapted to other situations of arithmetic interest within the context of the Langlands-Shahidi method, particularly, to that of a Siegel Levi subgroup inside a classical group.

Stability of Asai local factors for $GL(2)$

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of characteristic not equal to $2$ and let $E/F$ be a quadratic algebra. We prove the stability of local factors attached to (complex) irreducible admissible representations of $GL(2,E)$ via the Rankin-Selberg method under highly ramified twists. This includes both the Asai as well as the Rankin-Selberg local factors attached to pairs. Our method relies on expressing the gamma factor as a Mellin transform using Bessel functions.

New integral representations for Rankin-Selberg L-functions

We derive integral representations for the Rankin-Selberg L-functions on GL(3) x GL(1) and GL(3) x GL(2) by a process of unipotent averaging at archimedean places. A key feature of our result is that it allows one to fix the choice of test vector at finite places, irrespective of ramification. This enables a new proof of the functional equation for GL(3) x GL(2) Rankin-Selberg L-functions in many cases.
