The exterior square L-function attached to an automorphic cuspidal representation of GL 2n has a pole if and only if a certain period integral does not vanish on the space of the representation.We conjecture, in the "if" direction, a similar result is true for representations of GL 2 ( D), where D is a division algebra.We prove a partial result which provides evidence for the conjecture.The proof is based on a relative trace formula.
