Title:
gamma-factors as distributions
Speaker:
Abstract:
We look at two different distributions giving –factors for automorphic L–functions and discuss their generalizations: One is those defined through Langlands–Shahidi method whose generalization requires the use of Kac–Moody groups; and the other, the Godement–Jacquet theory of principal L–functions for GL(n), whose full gen- eralization is the subject matter of the recent program of Braverman–Kazhdan, Lafforgue, and Ngo. We will briefly discuss these methods and their generaliza- tions, and aspects they share.
