Periods, cycles, and L-functions: A relative trace formula approach
Wei Zhang
Abstract: Motivated by the formulas of Gross–Zagier and Waldspurger, we review conjectures and theorems on automorphic period integrals, special cycles on Shimura varieties, and their connection to central values of L-functions and their derivatives. We focus on the global Gan–Gross–Prasad conjectures, their arithmetic versions and some variants in the author’s joint work with Rapoport and Smithling. We discuss the approach of relative trace formulas and the arithmetic fundamental lemma conjecture. In the function field setting, Z. Yun and the author obtain a formula for higher order derivatives of L-functions in terms of special cycles on the moduli space of Drinfeld Shtukas.
