Abstract

We study certain new relative trace formulas on (non-reductive) period integrals involving Weil representations, in the context of the relative Langlands program. We study normal representatives using Galois theory, and establish geometric decompositions of relative trace formulas using normal representatives for good test functions. By comparing global representatives, local distributions and orbital integrals, we prove the twisted Gan--Gross--Prasad (GGP) conjecture on Asai L-functions, in any dimension under some local assumptions, allowing ramifications of number fields.
