Let $E/F$ be a quadratic unramified extension of non-archimedean local fields and $\mathbb H$ a simply connected semisimple algebraic group defined and split over $F$. We establish general results (multiplicities, test vectors) on $\HH (F)$-distinguished Iwahori-spherical representations of $\HH (E)$. For discrete series Iwahori-spherical representations of $\HH (E)$, we prove a numerical criterion of $\HH (F)$-distinction. As an application, we classify the $\HH (F)$-distinguished discrete series representations of $\HH (E)$ corresponding to degree $1$ characters of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra.
For Iwahori-spherical representations of non-Archimedean general linear groups, Chan-Savin recently expressed the Whittaker functor as a restriction to an isotypic component of a finite Iwahori-Hecke algebra module. We generalize this method to describe principal degenerate Whittaker functors. Concurrently, we view Murnaghan's formula for the Harish-Chandra--Howe character as a Grothendieck group expansion of the same module. Comparing the two approaches through the lens of Zelevinsky's PSH-algebras, we obtain an explicit unitriangular transition matrix between coefficients of the character ex…
We establish a connection between certain unique models, or equivalently unique functionals, for representations of p-adic groups and linear characters of their corresponding Hecke algebras. This allows us to give a uniform evaluation of the image of spherical and Iwahori-fixed vectors in the unramified principal series for this class of models. We provide an explicit alternator expressionfor the image of the spherical vectors under these functionals in terms of the representation theory of the dual group.
This paper gives the classification of the Whittaker unitary dual for affine graded Hecke algebras of type E. By the Iwahori-Matsumoto involution, this is equivalent also to the classification of the spherical unitary dual for type E. This work completes the classification of the Whittaker Iwahori-spherical unitary dual, or equivalently, the spherical unitary dual, of split linear algebraic p-adic groups.
The wavefront set is a fundamental invariant arising from the Harish-Chandra-Howe local character expansion of an admissible representation. We prove a precise formula for the wavefront set of an irreducible Iwahori-spherical representation with `real infinitesimal character' and determine a lower bound for this invariant in terms of the Deligne-Langlands-Lusztig parameters. In particular, for the Iwahori-spherical representations with real infinitesimal character, we deduce that the algebraic wavefront set is a singleton, as conjectured by Moeglin and Waldspurger. As a corollary, we obtain an…
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of odd residue characteristic $p$. Let $G$ be the unramified unitary group $U(2, 1)(E/F)$, and $K$ be a maximal compact open subgroup of $G$. For an $\overline{\mathbf{F}}_p$-smooth representation $π$ of $G$ containing a weight $σ$ of $K$, we follow the work of Hu (\cite{Hu12}) to attach $π$ a certain $I_K$-subrepresentation, where $I_K$ is the Iwahori subgroup in $K$. In terms of such an $I_K$-subrepresentation, we prove a sufficient condition for $π$ to be non-finitely presented. We determine such an $I_K$-subrepresentation explicitly, when $π$ is eit…
This paper is a continuation of a previous paper in which the first two authors have introduced the spherical Hecke algebra and the Satake isomorphism for an untwisted affine Kac-Moody group over a non-archimedian local field. In this paper we develop the theory of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra associated to these same groups. The resulting algebra is shown to be closely related to Cherednik's double affine Hecke algebra. Furthermore, using these results, we give an explicit description of the affine Satake isomorphism, generalizing Macdonald's formula for the spherical function in the finite-dime…
For a $p$-adic field $F$, the space of pro-$p$-Iwahori invariants of a universal supersingular mod $p$ representation $τ$ of ${\rm GL}_2(F)$ is determined in the works of Breuil, Schein, and Hendel. The representation $τ$ is introduced by Barthel and Livné and this is defined in terms of the spherical Hecke operator. In earlier work of Anandavardhanan-Borisagar, an Iwahori-Hecke approach was introduced to study these universal supersingular representations in which they can be characterized via the Iwahori-Hecke operators. In this paper, we construct a certain quotient $π$ of $τ$, making use o…
A problem in representation theory of $p$-adic groups is the computation of the \textit{Casselman basis} of Iwahori fixed vectors in the spherical principal series representations, which are dual to the intertwining integrals. We shall express the transition matrix $(m_{u,v})$ of the Casselman basis to another natural basis in terms of certain polynomials which are deformations of the Kazhdan-Lusztig R-polynomials. As an application we will obtain certain new functional equations for these transition matrices under the algebraic involution sending the residue cardinality $q$ to $q^{-1}$. We wi…
The geometric Satake isomorphism is an equivalence between the categories of spherical perverse sheaves on affine Grassmanian and the category of representations of the Langlands dual group. We provide a similar description for derived categories of l-adic sheaves on an affine flag variety which are geometric counterparts of a maximal commutative subalgebra in the Iwahori Hecke algebra; of the anti-spherical module over this algebra; and of the space of Iwahori-invariant Whitakker functions.
We realize the non-split Bessel model of Novodvorsky and Piatetski-Shapiro as a generalized Gelfand-Graev representation of GSp(4), as suggested by Kawanaka. With uniqueness of the model already established by Novodvorsky and Piatetski-Shapiro, we establish existence of a Bessel model for unramified principal series representations. We then connect the Iwahori-fixed vectors in the Bessel model to a linear character of the Hecke algebra of GSp(4) following the method outlined more generally by Brubaker, Bump, and Friedberg. We use this connection to calculate the image of Iwahori-fixed vectors …
Let K be a local non-archimedian field, F=K((t)) and let G be a split semi-simple group. The purpose of this paper is to study certain analogs of spherical (and Iwahori) Hecke algebras for representations of the group G(F) and its central extension by means of K*. For instance our spherical Hecke algebra corresponds to the subgroup G(A) where A is the subring $\calO_K((t))$ where $\calO_K\subset K$ is the ring of integers. It turns out that for generic level the spherical Hecke algebra is trivial; however, on the critical level it is quite large. On the other hand we expect that the size of th…
Let G be a semisimple almost simple algebraic group defined and split over a nonarchimedean local field K and let V be a unipotent representation of G(K) (for example, an Iwahori-spherical representation). We calculate the character of V at compact very regular elements of G(K) at compact very regular elements of G(K).
We determine test vectors and explicit formulas for all Bessel models for those Iwahori-spherical representations of GSp(4) over a p-adic field that have non-zero vectors fixed under the Siegel congruence subgroup.
Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field of characteristic $0$ and $G=Sp(4,F)$. Let $(π,W)$ be an irreducible smooth self-dual representation $G$. The space $W$ of $π$ admits a non-degenerate $G$-invariant bilinear form $(\,,\,)$ which is unique up to scaling. The form $(\,,\,)$ is easily seen to be symmetric or skew-symmetric and we set $\varepsilon(π)=\pm 1$ accordingly. In this paper, we show that $\varepsilon{(π)}=1$ when $π$ is an Iwahori spherical representation of $G$.
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a split reductive $p$-adic group with connected centre. We show that each Bernstein block in the principal series of $\mathcal{G}$ admits a definite geometric structure, namely that of an extended quotient. For the Iwahori-spherical block, this extended quotient has the form $T//W$ where $T$ is a maximal torus in the Langlands dual group of $\mathcal{G}$ and $W$ is the Weyl group of $\mathcal{G}$.
We describe the image, under the local Langlands correspondence for tori, of the characters of a torus which are trivial on its Iwahori subgroup. Let $k$ be a non-archimedian local field. Let $\boldsymbol{G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $k$, which is quasi-split and split over a tamely ramified extension. Let $K$ be a special maximal parahoric subgroup of $\boldsymbol{G}(k)$. To the class of representations of $\boldsymbol{G}(k)$, having a non-zero vector fixed under $K$, we establish a bijection, in a natural way, with the twisted semi-simple conjugacy classes of the inertia f…
For the discrete series representations of ${\rm GL}(n)$ over a non-archimedean local field $F$, we define a notion of functions similar to "zonal spherical functions" for unramified principal series. We prove the existence of such functions in the level $0$ case. As for unramified principal series, they give rise to explicit coefficients. We deduce a local proof of Matringe's criterion of distinction of discrete series, in the level $0$ case, for the Galois symmetric space ${\rm GL}(n,F)/{\rm GL}(n,F_0 )$, for any unramified quadratic extension $F/F_0$. We also exhibit explicit test vectors w…
