Let $F/F_0$ be a quadratic extension of non-Archimedean locally compact fields of residual characteristic $p\neq2$, and let $σ$ denote its non-trivial automorphism. Let $R$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $p$. To any cuspidal representation $π$ of ${\rm GL}_n(F)$, with coefficients in $R$, such that $π^σ\simeqπ^{\vee}$ (such a representation is said to be $σ$-selfdual) we associate a quadratic extension $D/D_0$, where $D$ is a tamely ramified extension of $F$ and $D_0$ is a tamely ramified extension of $F_0$, together with a quadratic character of $D_0^{\times}$. When $π$ is supercuspidal, we give a necessary and sufficient condition, in terms of these data, for $π$ to be ${\rm GL}_n(F_0)$-distinguished. When the characteristic $\ell$ of $R$ is not $2$, denoting by $ω$ the non-trivial $R$-character of $F_0^{\times}$ trivial on $F/F_0$-norms, we prove that any $σ$-selfdual supercuspidal $R$-representation is either distinguished or $ω$-distinguished, but not both. In the modular case, that is when $\ell>0$, we give examples of $σ$-selfdual cuspidal non-supercuspidal representations which are not distinguished nor $ω$-distinguished. In the particular case where $R$ is the field of complex numbers, in which case all cuspidal representations are supercuspidal, this gives a complete distinction criterion for arbitrary complex cuspidal representations, as well as a purely local proof, for cuspidal representations, of the dichotomy and disjunction theorem due to Kable and Anandavardhanan-Kable-Tandon.
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a totally real field $F$ which is compact modulo center at archimedean places. We find congruences modulo an arbitrary power of p between the space of arbitrary automorphic forms on $G(\mathbb A_F)$ and that of automorphic forms with supercuspidal components at p, provided that p is larger than the Coxeter number of the absolute Weyl group of $G$. We illustrate how such congruences can be applied in the construction of Galois representations. Our proof is based on type theory for representations of p-adic groups, generalizing the prototypical case of…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field and $\mathbf{U}$ be a unipotent group defined over $F$, and set $U=\mathbf{U}(F)$. Let $σ$ be an involution of $\mathbf{U}$ defined over $F$. Adapting the arguments of Yves Benoist in the real case, we prove the following result: an irreducible representation $π$ of $U$ is $U^σ$-distinguished if and only if it is $σ$-self-dual and in this case $\mathrm{Hom}_{U^σ}(π,\mathbb{C})$ has dimension one. When $σ$ is a Galois involution these results imply a bijective correspondence between the set $\mathrm{Irr}(U^σ)$ of isomorphism classes of irreducible representations of …
An irreducible smooth representation of a $p$-adic group $G$ is said to be distinguished with respect to a subgroup $H$ if it admits a non-trivial $H$-invariant linear form. When $H$ is the fixed group of an involution on $G$ it is suggested by the works of Hervé Jacquet from the nineties that distinction can be characterized in terms of the principle of functoriality. If the involution is the Galois involution then a recent conjecture of Dipendra Prasad predicts a formula for the dimension of the space of invariant linear forms which once again involves base change. We will describe the proof…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field, $E$ be a quadratic extension of $F$, $D$ be an $F$-central division algebra of odd index and let $θ$ be the Galois involution attached to $E/F$. Set $H=GL(m,D)$, $G=GL(m,D\otimes_F E)$, and let $P=MU$ be a standard parabolic subgroup of $G$. Let $w$ be a Weyl involution stabilizing $M$ and $M^{θ_w}$ be the subgroup of $M$ fixed by the involution $θ_w:m\mapsto θ(wmw)$. We denote by $X(M)^{w,-}$ the complex torus of $w$-anti-invariant unramified characters of $M$. Following the global methods of Jacquet, Lapid and Rogawski, we associate to a finite length representat…
