In contrast to all previously proved pullback formulas in this situation, our formula involves only scalar-valued functions despite being applicable to $L$-functions of vector-valued Siegel cusp forms. The key new ingredient in our method is a novel choice of local vectors at the archimedean place which allows us to exactly compute the archimedean local integral. By specializing our integral representation to the case $n=2$, we are able to prove a reciprocity law -- predicted by Deligne's conjecture -- for the critical special values of the twisted standard $L$-function for vector-valued Siegel cusp forms of degree 2 and arbitrary level. This arithmetic application generalizes previously proved critical-value results for the full level case. The proof of this application uses our recent structure theorem [arXiv:1501.00524] for the space of nearly holomorphic Siegel modular forms of degree 2 and arbitrary level.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-02-16T15:04:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "integral representation", "holomorphic forms", "arbitrary level", "holomorphic siegel modular forms", "holomorphic vector-valued siegel cusp form" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 43, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
