Abstract
In a famous paper, Waldspurger proved a local-global principle for a cuspidal automorphic representation of an inner form of $GL(2)$, to support a nonvanishing toric period integral. This was generalized in two directions. The first direction is the famous global Gan-Gross-Prasad conjectures, proven in many cases, but maybe not yet for special orthogonal groups. The second, which is in a sense more natural, leads to the so-called Guo-Jacquet conjecture for automorphic representations of inner forms of $GL(n)$, so far proven under local restrictions. I will present a local-global principle for non-vanishing of period integrals attached to several symmetric subgroups of inner forms of $GL(n)$, in particular generalizing that of Waldspurger. This in particular gives a complete proof of the direct implication of the Guo-Jacquet conjecture. This work is a collaboration with Omer Offen and Chang Yang.
