In this paper, we give an explicit determination of the theta lifting for symplectic-orthogonal and unitary dual pairs over a nonarchimedean field $F$ of characteristic $0$. We determine when theta lifts of tempered representations are nonzero, and determine the theta lifts in terms of the local Langlands correspondence.
In this note, we show that the metaplectic theta correspondence is compatible with the tempered condition by directly estimating the matrix coefficients, without using the classification theorem.
In this paper, we give an explicit determination of the non-vanishing of the theta liftings for unitary dual pairs (U(p,q), U(r,s)). Assuming the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture, we determine when theta lifts of tempered representations are nonzero in terms of the local Langlands correspondence.
We study the theta lifting for real unitary groups and completely determine the theta lifts of tempered representations. In particular, we show that the theta lifts of (limits of) discrete series representations can be expressed as cohomologically induced representations in the weakly fair range. This extends a result of J.-S. Li in the case of discrete series representations with sufficiently regular infinitesimal character, whose theta lifts can be expressed as cohomologically induced representations in the good range.
We establish an equality between two multiplicities: one in the restriction of tempered representations of a $p$-adic group to its closed subgroup with the same derived group; and one occurring in their corresponding component groups in Langlands dual sides, so-called $\mathcal{S}$-groups, under working hypotheses about the tempered local Langlands conjecture and the internal structure of tempered $L$-packets. This provides a formula of the multiplicity for $p$-adic groups by means of dimensions of irreducible representations of their $\mathcal{S}$-groups.
Using theta correspondence, we obtain a classification of irreducible representations of an arbitrary even orthogonal group (i.e. the local Langlands correspondence) by deducing it from the local Langlands correspondence for symplectic groups due to Arthur. Moreover,we show that our classifications coincide with the local Langlands correspondence established by Arthur and formulated precisely by Atobe-Gan for quasi-split even orthogonal groups.
Using the theta correspondence, we extend the classification of irreducible representations of quasi-split unitary groups (the so-called local Langlands correspondence, which was established in an early paper of Mok) to non quasi-split unitary groups. We also prove that our classification satisfies some good properties, which characterize it uniquely. In particular, this provides an alternative approach to the works of Kaletha-Minguez-Shin-White and Moeglin-Renard.
Using a level-raising argument (and a result of Larsen on the image of Galois representations in compatible systems), we prove that for any automorphic representation $π$ for $\U(3)$, the $l$-adic Galois representation $ρ_l$ which is attached to $π$ by the work of Blasius and Rogawski, is the one expected by local Langlands correspondance at every finite place (at least up to semi-simplification and for a density one set of primes $l$). We rely on the work of Harris and Taylor, who have proved the same results (for $\U(n)$) assuming the base change of $π$ is square-integrable at one place. As …
We give an expository account of the theory of intertwining operators for connected reductive $p$--adic groups, and their connection with automorphic $L$--functions. Our purpose is to illustrate the relation between harmonic analysis and arithmetic. In particular, we describe how the theory of Plancherel measures allows us to compute certain local Langlands $L$--functions. In order to be more self contained, we give a brief introduction to the Langlands program. The theory of $R$--groups and elliptic representations is treated here as well. Finally, we give an example which illustrates how the…
In this paper, we extend our result on a depth preserving property of the local Langlands correspondence for quasi-split unitary groups (arXiv:1804.10901) to non-quasi-split unitary groups by using the local theta correspondence. The key ingredients are a depth preserving property of the local theta correspondence proved by Pan and a description of the local theta correspondence via the local Langlands correspondence established by Gan--Ichino. To combine them, we compare splittings for metaplectic covers of unitary groups constructed by Kudla with those constructed by Pan.
We show that an orthogonal root number of a tempered L-parameter decomposes as the product of two other numbers: the orthogonal root number of the principal parameter and the value on a certain involution of Langlands's central character for the parameter. The formula resolves a conjecture of Gross and Reeder and computes root numbers of Weil-Deligne representations arising in the work of Hiraga, Ichino, and Ikeda on the Plancherel measure.
In this paper, we explicitly compute the semisimplifications of all Jacquet modules of irreducible representations with generic L-parameters of p-adic split odd special orthogonal groups or symplectic groups. Our computation represents them in terms of linear combinations of standard modules with rational coefficients. The main ingredient of this computation is to apply Moeglin's explicit construction of local A-packets to tempered L-packets.
We prove the recent conjectures of Adams-Vogan and D. Prasad on the behavior of the local Langlands correspondence with respect to taking the contragredient of a representation. The proof holds for tempered representations of quasi-split real K-groups and quasi-split p-adic classical groups (in the sense of Arthur). We also prove a formula for the behavior of the local Langlands correspondence for these groups with respect to changes of the Whittaker data.
We give a general proof of Shahidi's tempered L-function conjecture, which has previously been known in all but one case. One of the consequences is the standard modules conjecture for p-adic groups, which means that the Langlands quotient of a standard module is generic if and only if the standard module is irreducible and the inducing data generic. We have also included the result that every generic tempered representation of a p-adic group is a sub-representation of a representation parabolically induced from a generic supercuspidal representation with a non-negative real central character.
In this paper, we investigate the twisted GGP conjecture for certain tempered representations using the theta correspondence and establish some special cases, namely when the L-parameter of the unitary group is the sum of conjugate-dual characters of the appropriate sign.
We provide a construction of local and automorphic non-tempered Arthur packets of the group SO(3,2) and its inner form SO(4,1) associated with a certain Arthur's parameter and prove a multiplicity formula. We further study the restriction of the representations in these packets to the subgroup SO(3,1). In particular, we discover that the local Gross-Prasad conjecture, formulated for generic L-packets, does not generalize naively to a non-generic A-packet. We also study the non-vanishing of the automorphic SO(3,1)-period on the group SO(4,1) x SO(3,1) and SO(3,2) x SO(3,1) for the representatio…
We explicitly determine the theta correspondences for $\GSp_4$ and orthogonal similitude groups associated to various quadratic spaces of rank $4$ and $6$. The results are needed in our proof of the local Langlands correspondence for $\GSp_4$.
This is an expanded set of notes based on two lectures given by the author at the 2022 IHES summer school on the Langlands program, on explicit techniques for the construction of automorphic representations.
We continue our study of the poles of local Langlands L-functions through the theory of induced from supercuspidal representations of quasi-split groups. Here we study the odd special orthogonal groups, and hence determine poles of Rankin product L-functions. The pole of the intertwining operator is determined in terms of the theory of orbital integrals. This gives a description of the poles in terms of twisted endoscopy, as in previous cases. We use the language of functorial transfer to give precise descrption of the pole in terms of the local components of the global transfer, which has now…
The existence of the well-known Jacquet-Langlands correspondence was established by Jacquet and Langlands via the trace formula method in 1970. An explicit construction of such a correspondence was obtained by Shimizu via theta series in 1972. In this paper, we extend the automorphic descent method of Ginzburg-Rallis-Soudry to a new setting. As a consequence, we recover the classical Jacquet-Langlands correspondence for PGL(2) via a new explicit construction.
We give a proof of the Howe duality conjecture for the (almost) equal rank dual pairs in full generality. For arbitrary dual pairs, we prove the irreducibility of the (small) theta lifts for all tempered representations. Our proof works for any nonarchimedean local field of characteristic not 2 and in arbitrary residual characteristic.
We establish the Fourier-Jacobi case of the local Gross-Prasad conjecture for unitary groups, by using local theta correspondence to relate the Fourier-Jacobi case with the Bessel case established by Beuzart-Plessis. To achieve this, we prove two conjectures of D. Prasad on the precise description of the local theta correspondence for (almost) equal rank unitary dual pairs in terms of the local Langlands correspondence.
Following the approach of B. Roberts, we characterize the non-vanishing of global theta lifts for symplectic-orthogonal dual pairs in terms of its local counterpart. In particular, we replace the temperedness assumption present in Robert's work by a certain weaker assumption, and apply our results to small rank similitude groups. Among our applications is a certain instance of Langlands functorial transfer of a (non-generic) cuspidal automorphic representation of $GSp(4)$ to GL(4).
This paper proves the local Langlands conjecture for the non quasi-split inner form Sp(1,1) of Sp(4) over a p-adic field of characteristic 0, by studying the restriction of representations from the non quasi-split inner form GSp(1,1) of GSp(4) to Sp(1,1). The L-packets for Sp(1,1) are constructed based on the earlier work on the local Langlands correspondence for GSp(1,1) by Gan and Tantono. To parameterize them in terms of so-called S-groups, we establish and utilize the local Langlands correspondence for reductive dual groups which participate in the theta correspondence with Sp(1,1) and GSp…
We prove the local Gross-Prasad conjecture for generic L-packets of representations of special orthogonal groups. The proof uses the same result for tempered L-packets proved in a preceding paper, and irreducibility results for the induced representations of whose the elements of the L-packets are Langlands quotients.
We construct a Langlands parameterization of supercuspidal representations of $G_2$ over a $p$-adic field. More precisely, for any finite extension $K / \QQ_p$ we will construct a bijection \[ \CL_g : \CA^0_g(G_2,K) \rightarrow \CG^0(G_2,K) \] from the set of generic supercuspidal representations of $G_2(K)$ to the set of irreducible continuous homomorphisms $ρ: W_K \to G_2(\CC)$ with $W_K$ the Weil group of $K$. The construction of the map is simply a matter of assembling arguments that are already in the literature, together with a previously unpublished theorem of G. Savin on exceptional th…
We study a new lifting of automorphic representations using the theta representation $Θ$ on the $4$-fold cover of the symplectic group, $\overline{\mathrm{Sp}}_{2r}(\mathbb{A})$. This lifting produces the first examples of CAP representations on higher-degree metaplectic covering groups. Central to our analysis is the identification of the maximal nilpotent orbit associated to $Θ$. We conjecture a natural extension of Arthur's parameterization of the discrete spectrum to $\overline{\mathrm{Sp}}_{2r}(\mathbb{A})$. Assuming this, we compute the effect of our lift on Arthur parameters and show th…
We study parabolically induced representations for $GSpin_m(F)$ with $F$ a $p$--adic field of characteristic zero. The Knapp-Stein $R$--groups are described and shown to be elementary two groups. We show the associated cocycle is trivial proving multiplicity one for induced representations. We classify the elliptic tempered spectrum. For $GSpin_{2n+1}(F)$, we describe the Arthur (Endoscopic) $R$--group attached to Langlands parameters, and show these are isomorphic to the corresponding Knapp-Stein $R$--groups.
We explicitly construct cusp forms on the orthogonal group of signature $(1,8n+1)$ for an arbitrary natural number $n$ as liftings from Maass cusp forms of level one. In our previous works, the fundamental tool to show the automorphy of the lifting was the converse theorem by Maass. In this paper, we use the Fourier expansion of the theta lifts by Borcherds instead. We also study cuspidal representations generated by such cusp forms and show that they are irreducible and that all of their non-archimedean local components are non-tempered while the archimedean component is tempered, if the Maas…
In an earlier paper, we considered several restriction problems in the representation theory of classical groups over local and global fields. Assuming the Langlands-Vogan parameterization of irreducible representations, we formulated precise conjectures for the solutions of these restriction problems. In the local case, our conjectural answer is given in terms of Langlands parameters and certain natural symplectic root numbers associated to them. In the global case, the conjectural answer is expressed in terms of the central critical value or derivative of a global $L$-function. In this paper…
We adapt the conjectural local Langlands parameterization to split metaplectic groups over local fields. When $\tilde G$ is a central extension of a split connected reductive group over a local field (arising from the framework of Brylinski and Deligne), we construct a dual group $\mathbf{\tilde G}^\vee$ and an L-group ${}^L \mathbf{\tilde G}^\vee$ as group schemes over ${\mathbb Z}$. Such a construction leads to a definition of Weil-Deligne parameters (Langlands parameters) with values in this L-group, and to a conjectural parameterization of the irreducible genuine representations of $\tilde…
The local Langlands conjectures imply that to every generic supercuspidal irreducible representation of $G_2$ over a $p$-adic field, one can associate a generic supercuspidal irreducible representation of either $PGSp_6$ or$PGL_3$. We prove this conjectural dichotomy, demonstrating a precise correspondence between certain representations of $G_2$ and other representations of $PGSp_6$ and $PGL_3$. This correspondence arises from theta correspondences in $E_6$ and $E_7$, analysis of Shalika functionals, and spin L-functions. Our main result reduces the conjectural Langlands parameterization of g…
Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field of characteristic $0$, let $G$ be the group of $F$-rational points of a connected reductive group defined over $F$ and let $G'$ be the group of $F$-rational points of its quasi-split inner form. Given standard modules $I(τ,ν)$ and $I(τ',ν')$ for $G$ and $G'$ respectively with $τ'$ a generic tempered representation, such that the Harish-Chandra's $μ$-functions of a representation in the supercuspidal support of $τ$ and of a generic essentially square-integral representation in some Jacquet module of $τ'$ agree (after a suitable identification of the unde…
In this paper, we investigate the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for some pair of representations of $U(3)\times U(2)$ involving a non-generic representation. For a pair of generic $L$-parameters of $(U(n),U(n-1))$, it is known that there is a unique pair of representations in their associateed Vogan $L$-packets which produces the unique Bessel model of these $L$-parameters. We showed that this is not ture for some pair of $L$-parameters involving a non-generic one. On the other hand, we give the precise local theta correspondence for $(U(1),U(3))$ not at the level of $L$-parameters but of …
Let $π$ be a genuine cuspidal representation of the metaplectic group of rank $n$. We consider the theta lifts to the orthogonal group associated to a quadratic space of dimension $2n+1$. We show a case of regularised Rallis inner product formula that relates the pairing of theta lifts to the central value of the Langlands $L$-function of $π$ twisted by a character. The bulk of this article focuses on proving a case of regularised Siegel-Weil formula, on which the Rallis inner product formula is based and whose proof is missing in the literature.
Let Π be a cuspidal automorphic representation for GL(4) over a number field F. We obtain unconditional lower bounds on the number of places at which the Satake parameters are not "too large". In the case of self-dual Π with non-trivial central character, our results imply that the set of places at which Π is tempered has an explicit positive lower Dirichlet density. Our methods extend those of Ramakrishnan by careful analysis of the hypothetical possibilities for the structure of the Langlands conjugacy classes, as well as their behaviour under functorial lifts. We then discuss the analogous …
There are many Rankin-Selberg integrals representing Langlands $L$-functions, and it is not apparent what the limits of the Rankin-Selberg method are. The Dimension Equation is an equality satisfied by many such integrals that suggests a priority for further investigations. However there are also Rankin-Selberg integrals that do not satisfy this equation. Here we propose an extension and reformulation of the dimension equation that includes many additional cases. We explain some of these cases, including the new doubling integrals of the authors, Cai and Kaplan. We then show how this same equa…
We explicitly construct non-tempered cusp forms on the orthogonal group O(1,5) of signature (1+,5-). Given a definite quaternion algebra B over $\mathbb{Q}$, the orthogonal group is attached to the indefinite quadratic space of rank 6 with the anisotropic part defined by the reduced norm of B. Our construction can be viewed as a generalization of [22] to the case of any definite quaternion algebras, for which we note that [22] takes up the case where the discriminant of B is two. Unlike [22] the method of the construction is to consider the theta lifting from Maass cusp forms to O(1,5), follow…
The Rankin-Selberg method for studying Langlands' automorphic $L$-functions is to find integral representations, involving certain Fourier coefficients of cusp forms and Eisenstein series, for these functions. In this thesis we develop the local theory for generic representations of special orthogonal groups. We study the local integrals for $SO_{2l}\times GL_{n}$, where $SO_{2l}$ is the special even orthogonal group, either split or quasi-split, over a local non-Archimedean field. These integrals admit a functional equation, which is used to define a $γ$-factor. We show that, as expected, the…
