Abstract

The initials GGP stand for a collection of conjectures of Gan, Gross, and Prasad, which bridge representation theory and number theory. In this note, I will recall how Gan, Prasad, and I came to formulate these conjectures. For more details on the conjectures themselves see [17], as well as the surveys [16] and [31].
