Jacquet's conjecture on gamma factors for generic representations

Let FF be a non-archimedean local field, let Gn=GLn(F)G_n={\mathrm{GL}}_n(F), and let π1,π2\pi_1,\pi_2 be irreducible generic representations of GnG_n. They satisfy H0\mathcal H_0 if they have the same central character. For m1m\geq1, they satisfy Hm\mathcal H_m if they satisfy H0\mathcal H_0 and

γ(s,π1×τ,ψ)=γ(s,π2×τ,ψ)\gamma(s,\pi_1\times\tau,\psi)=\gamma(s,\pi_2\times\tau,\psi)

as functions of ss for every irreducible generic representation τ\tau of GmG_m. They satisfy Hr\mathcal H_{\leq r} if they satisfy Hm\mathcal H_m for every 0mr0\leq m\leq r.

Jacquet's conjecture. If π1\pi_1 and π2\pi_2 satisfy Hr\mathcal H_{\leq r}, then π1π2\pi_1\simeq\pi_2.

This family includes the local converse conjecture as the case r=[n2]r=\left[\frac n2\right]. The source records that the cases r=n1r=n-1 and r=n2r=n-2 are proved, as are the cases J(3,1)\mathcal J(3,1) and J(2,1)\mathcal J(2,1); the general assertion is therefore not presented as wholly open.
