Abstract

We study the local zeta integrals attached to a pair of generic representations (π,τ)(\pi,\tau) of GLn×GLmGL_n\times GL_m, n>mn>m, over a pp-adic field. Through a process of unipotent averaging we produce a pair of corresponding Whittaker functions whose zeta integral is non-zero, and we express this integral in terms of the Langlands parameters of π\pi and τ\tau. In many cases, these Whittaker functions also serve as a test vector for the associated Rankin-Selberg (local) LL-function.
