On Deligne's conjecture for symmetric sixth $L$-functions of Hilbert modular forms
Abstract
In this paper, we prove Deligne's conjecture for symmetric sixth $L$-functions of Hilbert modular forms. We extend the result of Morimoto based on a different approach. We define automorphic periods associated to globally generic $C$-algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations of ${\rm GSp}_4$ over totally real number fields whose archimedean components are (limits of) discrete series representations. We show that the algebraicity of critical $L$-values for ${\rm GSp}_4 \times {\rm GL}_2$ can be expressed in terms of these periods. In the case of Kim-Ramakrishnan-Shahidi lifts of ${\rm GL}_2$, we establish period relations between the automorphic periods and powers of Petersson norm of Hilbert modular forms. The conjecture for symmetric sixth $L$-functions then follows from these period relations and our previous work on the algebraicity of critical values for the adjoint $L$-functions for ${\rm GSp}_4$.
