Abstract

Given $\mathbf{F}$ a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_{\mathbf{F}}$ and $\mathfrak{p},\mathfrak{q}$ two squarefree and coprime ideals of $\mathcal{O}_{\mathbf{F}}$, we prove a reciprocity relation for the first moment of the triple product $L$-functions $L(\pi\otimes\pi_1\otimes\pi_2,\frac{1}{2})$ twisted by $\lambda_\pi(\mathfrak{p})$, where $\pi_1$ and $\pi_2$ are a fixed unitary automorphic representation of $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb{A}_{\mathbf{F}})$ with $\pi_1$ cuspidal and $\pi$ runs through unitary automorphic representations of conductor dividing $\mathfrak{q}$. The method uses adelic integral representations of $L$-functions and the symmetric identity is established for a particular period. Finally, the integral period is connected to the second moment via Parseval formula.
