We apply these results to construct nonzero periods and distinguished representations. If both $\\Pi$ and $ \\pi$ have the trivial infinitesimal character $\\rho$ then we use a theorem that the periods are nonzero on the minimal $K$-type to obtain a nontrivial bilinear form on the $({\\mathfrak g},K)$-cohomology of the representations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-07-14T13:28:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22E30", "11F40", "22E45", "22E46", "53A30", "58J70" ], "keywords": [ "distinguished representations", "branching laws", "nonsingular integral infinitesimal character", "nontrivial bilinear form", "special orthogonal groups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
