Abstract

We follow Jacquet-Shalika [7], Matringe [12] and Cogdell-Matringe [3] to define exterior square gamma factors for irreducible cuspidal representations of \({\rm{G}}{{\rm{L}}_n}({\mathbb{F}_q})\). These exterior square gamma factors are expressed in terms of Bessel functions associated to the cuspidal representations. We also relate our exterior square gamma factors over finite fields to those over local fields through level-zero representations.
