Professor Atsushi Murase from Kyoto Sangyo University was kind enough to send me the preprint. I am uncertain whether I can post it publicly, but if you write me an email I will send it to you. <sub>[email protected]</sub> [![enter image description here][1]][1] Professor Tomonori Moriyama from Osaka University gave me some background information: > The paper you mentioned is the master thesis of S-I. Kato under the > supervision of Prof. N. Iwahori, which is hand-written and written in > Japanese. I read it in the library of Graduate School of Mathematical > Sciences of University of Tokyo more than 20 years ago. > > The basic strategy of proof is more or less the same as T. Shintani's 1976 > paper <A HREF="https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/pjab1945/52/4/52_4_180/_article/-char/ja/">On an explicit formula for class-1 “Whittaker functions” on GL$_n$ over $p$-adic fields</A>, but there are much more complicated > case-by-case arguments.
