In this article we state and prove the spectral expansion of theta series attached to the symmetric space GLn(E)/GLn(F) where n≥ 1 and E/F is a quadratic extension of number fields. This is an important step towards the fine spectral expansion of the Jacquet-Rallis trace formula for general linear groups. To obtain our result, we extend the work of Jacquet-Lapid-Rogawski on intertwining periods to the case of discrete automorphic representations. The expansion we get is an absolutely convergent integral of relative characters built upon Eisenstein series and intertwining periods. We also establish a crucial but technical ingredient whose interest lies beyond the focus of the article: we prove bounds for discrete Eisenstein series of GLn on a neighborhood of the imaginary axis extending previous works of Lapid on cuspidal Eisenstein series. We even need a variant of such bounds on some shifts of the imaginary axis.
