Suppose $pi$ is an unramified principal series representation of ${rm GL}_2(F)$, where $F$ is a non-archimedean local field with integers $mathfrak{o}$. Let $W$ be a function in its Whittaker model. If $chi$ is a quasi-character of $F^times$ then we define its local zeta integral as
$$ Z(W, s, chi, g) = int_{F^times} W((begin{smallmatrix} y & 0 \ 0 & 1 end{smallmatrix})g) chi(y) |y|^{s-1/2}, d^times y,$$ see e.g. (6.28) of Gelbart's book. Then for $W= W_0$ the unique $K = {rm GL}_2(mathfrak{o})$-invariant Whittaker function with $W_0(1)=1$, we have $$Z(W_0,s,chi,1) = L(s, pi otimes chi),$$ see e.g. prop 6.17b of Gelbart.
Note that if $chi$ is ramified, then we have simply $$L(s,pi otimes chi)=1.$$ Let's write $y in F^times$ as $p^n x,$ where $x in mathfrak{o}^times$, and $p$ is a uniformizer, and $chi$ as $chi(p^nx) = |p^n|^{s'} chi^*(x),$ where $ chi^*$ is a character of $mathfrak{o}^times$. Then we have
$$Z(W,s, chi, 1) = sum_{n in mathbb{Z}} W((begin{smallmatrix} p^n & 0 \ 0 & 1 end{smallmatrix}))|p^n|^{s-1/2+s'} int_{x in mathfrak{o}^times} chi^*(x),dx,$$
which is $0$ if $chi$ is ramified. Contradiction.



Am I correct to interpret the above to mean that the $W_0$ that I have chosen above is not the correct choice of test vector for the zeta integral when $chi$ is ramified? If so, what is the correct test vector?

[Expanding my comment to an answer]



The new vector of $pi$ is not the correct test vector to use when $chi$ is ramified; and if Gelbart really claims this holds for all $chi$, then he is wrong.



You can decompose the Kirillov model of $pi$ as a (countably infinite) direct sum of eigenspaces for the action of $mathfrak{o}^times$. It's easy to check that any function that is in an eigenspace other than the $chi^{-1}$-eigenspace will be sent to 0 by $Z(-, s, chi, 1)$. Conversely, a Schwartz function on $F$ which lies in the $chi^{-1}$-eigenspace for $mathfrak{o}^times$ had better vanish at 0 and hence have compact support in $F^times$; so this eigenspace is precisely the linear combinations of the functions $chi^{-1} cdot 1_{varpi^n mathfrak{o}^times}$, for $n in mathbf{Z}$ (exercise). So the space of functions ${ Z(W, s, chi, 1) }$ for varying $W$ is exactly the space of polynomials in $q^{-s}$, and the function with Kirillov model $chi^{-1} 1_{varpi^n mathfrak{o}^times}$ will be a test vector for any $n$, although $n = 0$ is surely the most obvious choice. (Note that the vector with Kirillov function $chi^{-1} 1_{mathfrak{o}^times}$ maps to the new vector of $pi otimes chi$.)

    $begingroup$

    Yes. The issue is that $Z(-, s, chi, 1)$ is a linear functional which transforms by $chi$ on $mathfrak o^times$ (say in the Kirillov model). So if you plug in a function which is $mathfrak o^times$-invariant and $chi$ is ramified, you must get 0.

      @Sandpiper You can of course do what David Loeffler suggests in the comments to get a test vector, though I'm not sure if it's the "correct" one. E.g., maybe you want a certain translate of the new vector---see my paper with File and Pitale or Vatsal's recent preprint on the arXiv for the case of ramified test vectors for toric periods.

    The new vector of $pi$ is not the correct test vector to use when $chi$ is ramified; and if Gelbart really claims this holds for all $chi$, then he is wrong.



    You can decompose the Kirillov model of $pi$ as a (countably infinite) direct sum of eigenspaces for the action of $mathfrak{o}^times$. It's easy to check that any function that is in an eigenspace other than the $chi^{-1}$-eigenspace will be sent to 0 by $Z(-, s, chi, 1)$. Conversely, a Schwartz function on $F$ which lies in the $chi^{-1}$-eigenspace for $mathfrak{o}^times$ had better vanish at 0 and hence have compact support in $F^times$; so this eigenspace is precisely the linear combinations of the functions $chi^{-1} cdot 1_{varpi^n mathfrak{o}^times}$, for $n in mathbf{Z}$ (exercise). So the space of functions ${ Z(W, s, chi, 1) }$ for varying $W$ is exactly the space of polynomials in $q^{-s}$, and the function with Kirillov model $chi^{-1} 1_{varpi^n mathfrak{o}^times}$ will be a test vector for any $n$, although $n = 0$ is surely the most obvious choice. (Note that the vector with Kirillov function $chi^{-1} 1_{mathfrak{o}^times}$ maps to the new vector of $pi otimes chi$.)

            Yes. The issue is that $Z(-, s, chi, 1)$ is a linear functional which transforms by $chi$ on $mathfrak o^times$ (say in the Kirillov model). So if you plug in a function which is $mathfrak o^times$-invariant and $chi$ is ramified, you must get 0.

              @Sandpiper You can of course do what David Loeffler suggests in the comments to get a test vector, though I'm not sure if it's the "correct" one.
