On the holomorphy of exterior-square L-functions

Dustin David Belt, Purdue University

Abstract

In this paper, we show that the twisted partial exterior-square L-function has a meromorphic continuation to the whole complex plane with only two possible simple poles at s = 1 and s = 0. We do this by establishinng the nonvanishing of the local zeta integrals defined by Jacquet and Shalika for any fixed s 0. The even case is treated in detail. The odd case is treated briefly, in which case, the L-function is shown to be entire.
