Description

Algorithms for the explicit symbolic and numeric evaluation of Jacquet’s Whittaker function for the GL(n,R) based generalized upper halfplane for n ≥ 2, and an implementation for symbolic evaluation in the Mathematica package GL(n)pack, are described. This requires a comparison of the different definitions of Whittaker function which have appeared in the literature.
