On a local conjecture of Jacquet, ladder representations and standard modules

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Let E / F be a quadratic extension of p-adic fields. We prove that every smooth irreducible ladder representation of the group GLn(E) which is contragredient to its own Galois conjugate, possesses the expected distinction properties relative to the subgroup GLn(F). This affirms a conjecture attributed to Jacquet for a large class of representations. Along the way, we prove a reformulation of the conjecture which concerns standard modules in place of irreducible representations.
