Period identities of CM forms on quaternion algebras

Waldspurger's formula gives an identity between the norm of a torus period and an L-function of the twist of an automorphic representation on GL(2). For any two Hecke characters of a fixed quadratic extension, one can consider the two torus periods coming from integrating one character against the automorphic induction of the other. Because the corresponding L-functions agree, (the norms of) these periods---which occur on different quaternion algebras---are closely related. In this paper, we give a direct proof of an explicit identity between the torus periods themselves.
