Sur un résultat de Waldspurger II
Lafforgue has proposed a new approach to the principle of functoriality in a test case, namely, the case of automorphic induction from an idele class character of a quadratic extension. For technical reasons, he considers only the case of function fields and assumes the data is unramified. In this paper, we show that his method applies without these restrictions. The ground field is a number field or a function field and the data may be ramified.
We show that certain quadratic base change -functions for are non-negative at their center of symmetry.
