On a Critical Case of Rallis Inner Product Formula


Abstract in English

Let $pi$ be a genuine cuspidal representation of the metaplectic group of rank $n$. We consider the theta lifts to the orthogonal group associated to a quadratic space of dimension $2n+1$. We show a case of regularised Rallis inner product formula that relates the pairing of theta lifts to the central value of the Langlands $L$-function of $pi$ twisted by a character. The bulk of this article focuses on proving a case of regularised Siegel-Weil formula, on which the Rallis inner product formula is based and whose proof is missing in the literature.
