Abstract

In this note we prove a certain multiplicity formula regarding the restriction of an irreducible admissible genuine representation of a 2-fold cover GL2(F) of GL2(F) to the 2-fold cover L2 (F) of SL2 (F), and find in particular that this multiplicity may not be one, a result that was recently observed for certain principal series representations in the work of Szpruch (2013). The proofs follow the standard path via Waldspurger’s analysis of theta correspondence between L2(F) and PGL2(F).
