On a result of Waldspurger in higher rank
Abstract:
An important result of Waldspurger relates certain central $L$-values of automorphic forms on $GL(2)$ to period integrals over tori. Subsequently this result was reproved by Jacquet using the relative trace formula. We will explain some progress on extending Waldspurger's result to higher rank via a generalization of Jacquet's approach.
