L-functions for the p-adic group GSp(4

Abstract. In this paper we compute the local L-factors for Novodvorsky integrals for all generic representations of the group GSp(4) over a nonarchemidean local field. 1. Introduction. In this paper we will study the p-adic theory of Novod-vorsky integrals for the similitude symplectic group GSp(4), and will present the computation of the nonarchemidean L-factors given by these integrals for all generic representations of the group. These integrals which were introduced by M. Novodvorsky in the Corvallis conference [17] serve as one of the few avail
