Prasad's conjecture on non-vanishing of twisted Jacquet modules

Let FF be the underlying local field, let Gm=GLm(F)G_m=GL_m(F), and let NN and ψ\psi be the subgroup and character defining the twisted Jacquet module. Let π\pi be an irreducible smooth representation of G2nG_{2n} and let ρ=recF2n(π)\rho=\operatorname{rec}_F^{2n}(\pi) denote its Langlands parameter. Prasad's conjecture. The twisted Jacquet module πN,ψ\pi_{N,\psi} vanishes if and only if the LL-function

L(s,π,Ad)=L(s,ρρ)L(s,\pi,\operatorname{Ad})=L(s,\rho\otimes\rho^{\vee})

has poles of order at least n,n1,,1n,n-1,\dots,1 at s=1,2,,ns=1,2,\dots,n, respectively. This conjecture classifies the irreducible smooth representations of GL2n(F)GL_{2n}(F) whose twisted Jacquet module is nonzero; its resolution is not indicated in the supplied text.
