Abstract

We compute the n-level correlation of normalized nontrivial zeros of a product of Lfunctions: L(s, π1) … L(s, π k ), where πj, j = 1, …, k, are automorphic cuspidal representations of GL mj (ℚA). Here the sizes of the groups GL mj (ℚA) are not necessarily the same. When these L(s, π j ) are distinct, we prove that their nontrivial zeros are uncorrelated, as predicted by random matrix theory and verified numerically. When L(s, π j ) are not necessarily distinct, our results will lead to a proof that the n-level correlation of normalized nontrivial zeros of the product L-function follows the superposition of Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) models of individual L-functions and products of lower rank GUEs. The results are unconditional when m 1, …, m k ⩽ 4, but are under Hypothesis H in other cases.
