Shalika [6] proved the existence of germs (associated with a connected semi-simple algebraic group and a maximal torus over a non-archimedean local field), established many of their properties, and conjectured that the germ associated to the trivial unipotent class in GL(n) should be a constant. R. Howe and Harish-Chandra proved that it is a constant and J. Rogawski [5] proved that it had the value predicted previously by J. Shalika.
