- Source: Automorphic L-function
In mathematics, an automorphic L-function is a function L(s,π,r) of a complex variable s, associated to an automorphic representation π of a reductive group G over a global field and a finite-dimensional complex representation r of the Langlands dual group LG of G, generalizing the Dirichlet L-series of a Dirichlet character and the Mellin transform of a modular form. They were introduced by Langlands (1967, 1970, 1971).
Borel (1979) and Arthur & Gelbart (1991) gave surveys of automorphic L-functions.
Properties
Automorphic
L
{\displaystyle L}
-functions should have the following properties (which have been proved in some cases but are still conjectural in other cases).
The L-function
L
(
s
,
π
,
r
)
{\displaystyle L(s,\pi ,r)}
should be a product over the places
v
{\displaystyle v}
of
F
{\displaystyle F}
of local
L
{\displaystyle L}
functions.
L
(
s
,
π
,
r
)
=
∏
v
L
(
s
,
π
v
,
r
v
)
{\displaystyle L(s,\pi ,r)=\prod _{v}L(s,\pi _{v},r_{v})}
Here the automorphic representation
π
=
⊗
π
v
{\displaystyle \pi =\otimes \pi _{v}}
is a tensor product of the representations
π
v
{\displaystyle \pi _{v}}
of local groups.
The L-function is expected to have an analytic continuation as a meromorphic function of all complex
s
{\displaystyle s}
, and satisfy a functional equation
L
(
s
,
π
,
r
)
=
ϵ
(
s
,
π
,
r
)
L
(
1
−
s
,
π
,
r
∨
)
{\displaystyle L(s,\pi ,r)=\epsilon (s,\pi ,r)L(1-s,\pi ,r^{\lor })}
where the factor
ϵ
(
s
,
π
,
r
)
{\displaystyle \epsilon (s,\pi ,r)}
is a product of "local constants"
ϵ
(
s
,
π
,
r
)
=
∏
v
ϵ
(
s
,
π
v
,
r
v
,
ψ
v
)
{\displaystyle \epsilon (s,\pi ,r)=\prod _{v}\epsilon (s,\pi _{v},r_{v},\psi _{v})}
almost all of which are 1.
General linear groups
Godement & Jacquet (1972) constructed the automorphic L-functions for general linear groups with r the standard representation (so-called standard L-functions) and verified analytic continuation and the functional equation, by using a generalization of the method in Tate's thesis. Ubiquitous in the Langlands Program are Rankin-Selberg products of representations of GL(m) and GL(n). The resulting Rankin-Selberg L-functions satisfy a number of analytic properties, their functional equation being first proved via the Langlands–Shahidi method.
In general, the Langlands functoriality conjectures imply that automorphic L-functions of a connected reductive group are equal to products of automorphic L-functions of general linear groups. A proof of Langlands functoriality would also lead towards a thorough understanding of the analytic properties of automorphic L-functions.
