We calculate a G_2-period of a Fourier coefficient of a cuspidal Eisenstein series on the split simply-connected group E_6, and relate this period to the Ginzburg-Rallis period of cusp forms on GL_6. This gives us a relation between the Ginzburg-Rallis period and the central value of the exterior cube L-function of GL_6.

An open subset$D$of$R$^{$d$},$d≧2$, is called Poissonian iff every bounded harmonic function on the set is a Poisson integral of a bounded function on its boundary. We show that the intersection of two Poissonian open sets is itself Poissonian and give a sufficient condition for the union of two Poissonian open sets to be Poissonian. Some necessary and sufficient conditions for an open set to be Poissonian are also given. In particular, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a Greenian$D$to be Poissonian in terms of its Martin boundary.

An asymptotic formula is given for the number of integers$n$≤$x$for which φ($n$) is not divisible by a given odd prime.
