Lapid–Mao's local identity for Whittaker-period constants

At least 11 years old · documented by

Let FF be the base number field, let E/FE/F be the quadratic extension, let vv be a place of FF, and let Πv\Pi_v be the relevant local base-change representation. Write ωΠv\omega_{\Pi_v} for its central character, let η∈Ev×\eta\in E_v^\times satisfy ηˉ=−η\bar\eta=-\eta, and let cπvc_{\pi_v} be the local constant occurring in the preceding global formula.

Lapid–Mao's local conjecture. For every η∈Ev×\eta\in E_v^\times such that ηˉ=−η\bar\eta=-\eta, one has

cπv=ωΠv(η).c_{\pi_v}=\omega_{\Pi_v}(\eta).

In particular, the source states that this local identity implies the preceding global Whittaker-period conjecture for π\pi. The supplied text does not specify whether the local identity has been resolved.
