In this paper, we reformulate Moeglin's explicit construction of local A-packets of split odd special orthogonal groups and symplectic groups. By this reformulation together with results of the previous paper with Minguez, we can compute the A-packets explicitly. Also, we give a non-vanishing criterion of our parametrization, and an algorithm to compute certain derivatives. Finally, we prove a formula for the Aubert duals of irreducible representations of Arthur type.
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.
Mok and Moeglin-Renard have defined Arthur packets for unitary groups. Their definitions follow Arthur's work on classical groups and rely on harmonic analysis. For real groups there is an alternative definition of Arthur packets due to Adams-Barbasch-Vogan. It relies on sheaf-theoretic techniques instead of harmonic analysis. We prove that these two definitions of Arthur packets are equivalent in the case of real unitary groups.
Generalizing the proof -- by Hecht and Schmid -- of Osborne's conjecture we prove an Archimedean (and weaker) version of a theorem of Colette Moeglin. The result we obtain is a precise Archimedean version of the general principle -- stated by the second author -- according to which {\it a local Arthur packet contains the corresponding local $L$-packet and representations which are more tempered.}
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…
Let $G$ be a symplectic group over a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and odd residual characteristic. Given an irreducible cuspidal representation of G, we determine its Langlands parameter (equivalently, its Jordan blocks in the language of Moeglin) in terms of the local data from which the representation is explicitly constructed, up to a possible unramified twist in each block of the parameter. We deduce a Ramification Theorem for $G$, giving a bijection between the set of endo-parameters for $G$ and the set of restrictions to wild inertia of discrete Langlands parameters …
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.
We study ${\rm Sp}_{2n}(F)$-distinction for representations of the quasi-split unitary group $U_{2n}(E/F)$ in $2n$ variables with respect to a quadratic extension $E/F$ of $p$-adic fields. A conjecture of Dijols and Prasad predicts that no tempered representation is distinguished. We verify this for a large family of representations in terms of the Moeglin-Tadic classification of the discrete series. We further study distinction for some families of non-tempered representations. In particular, we exhibit $L$-packets with no distinguished members that transfer under stable base change to ${\rm …
In this paper, we give an algorithm to determine all local A-packets containing a given irreducible representation of a p-adic classical group. Especially, we can determine whether a given irreducible representation is of Arthur type or not.
For certain quasi-split reductive groups $G$ over a general field $F$, we construct an automorphism $ι_G$ of $G$ over $F$, well-defined as an element of ${\rm Aut}(G)(F)/jG(F)$ where $j:G(F) \rightarrow {\rm Aut}(G)(F)$ is the inner-conjugation action of $G(F)$ on $G$. The automorphism $ι_G$ generalizes (although only for quasi-split groups) an involution due to Moeglin-Vigneras-Waldspurger in [MVW] for classical groups which takes any irreducible admissible representation $π$ of $G(F)$ for $G$ a classical group and $F$ a local field, to its contragredient $π^\vee$. The paper also formulates a…
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 generalize the work of DeBacker and Reeder to the case of unitary groups split by a tame extension. The approach is broadly similar and the restrictions on the parameter the same, but many of the details of the arguments differ. Let $G$ be a unitary group defined over a local field $K$ and splitting over a tame extension $E/K$. Given a Langlands parameter $φ: \mathcal{W}_K \rightarrow {^L G}$ that is tame, discrete and regular, we give a natural construction of an $L$-packet $Π_φ$ associated to $φ$, consisting of representations of pure inner forms of $G(K)$ and parametrized by the characte…
A polarized abelian variety (X,λ) of dimension g over a local field K determines an admissible representation of GSpin_{2g+1}(K). We show that the restriction of this representation to Spin_{2g+1}(K) is reducible if and only if X is isogenous to its twist by the quadratic unramified extension of K. When g=1 and K = Q_p, we recover the well-known fact that the admissible GL_2(K) representation attached to an elliptic curve E is reducible upon restriction to SL_2(K) if and only if E has supersingular reduction.
We prove a conjecture of the first-named author ([J14]) on the upper bound Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms in Arthur packets of all classical groups over any number field. This conjecture generalizes the global version of the local tempered $L$-packet conjecture of F. Shahidi ([Sh90] and [Sh10]).

In this paper we prove Vogan's conjecture on local Arthur packets, for Arthur parameters of $p$-adic general linear groups that are irreducible as representations of $W_F \times SL_2(\mathbb{C}) \times SL_2(\mathbb{C})$ - we refer to such parameters as irreducible Arthur parameters. This result shows that these Arthur packets may be characterized by properties of simple perverse sheaves on a moduli space of Langlands parameters.
We consider the symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}$ defined over a $p$-adic field $F$, where $p=2$. We prove that every simple supercuspidal representation (in the sense of Gross--Reeder) of $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(F)$ corresponds to an irreducible $L$-parameter under the local Langlands correspondence for $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}$ established by Arthur.
In [Ar13], Arthur classifies the automorphic discrete spectrum of symplectic groups up to global Arthur packets, based on the theory of endoscopy. It is an interesting and basic question to ask: which global Arthur packets contain no cuspidal automorphic representations? The investigation on this question can be regarded as a further development of the topics originated from the classical theory of singular automorphic forms. The results obtained yield a better understanding of global Arthur packets and of the structure of local unramified components of the cuspidal spectrum, and hence are clo…
Let G = SL_2(K) with K a local function field of characteristic 2. We review Artin-Schreier theory for the field K, and show that this leads to a parametrization of L-packets in the smooth dual of G. We relate this to a recent geometric conjecture. The L-packets in the principal series are parametrized by quadratic extensions, and the supercuspidal L-packets by biquadratic extensions. We compute the formal degrees of the elements in the supercuspidal packets.
We provide an explicit construction of the local Langlands correspondence for general tamely-ramified reductive p-adic groups and a class of wildly ramified Langlands parameters. Furthermore, we verify that our construction satisfies the expected properties of such a correspondence. More precisely, we show that each L-packet we construct admits a parameterization in terms of the Langlands dual group, contains a unique generic element for a fixed Whittaker datum, satisfies the formal degree conjecture, is compatible with twists by central and cocentral characters, provides a stable virtual char…
In this paper, for quasi-split classical groups over p-adic fields, we determine the L-packets consisting of simple supercuspidal representations and their corresponding L-parameters, under the assumption that p is not equal to 2. The key is an explicit computation of characters of simple supercuspidal representations and the endoscopic character relation, which is a characterization of the local Langlands correspondence for quasi-split classical groups.
Reeder and Yu have recently given a new construction of a class of supercuspidal representations called epipelagic representations. We explicitly calculate the Local Langlands Correspondence for certain families of epipelagic representations of unitary groups, following the general construction of Kaletha [Kal15]. The interesting feature of our computation is that we find simplifications within L-packets of the two novel invariants introduced in [Kal15], the toral invariant and the admissible L-embedding.
Let G = SL_2(K) with K a local function field of characteristic 2. We review Artin-Schreier theory for the field K, and show that this leads to a parametrization of certain L-packets in the smooth dual of G. We relate this to a recent geometric conjecture. The L-packets in the principal series are parametrized by quadratic extensions, and the supercuspidal L-packets of cardinality 4 are parametrized by biquadratic extensions. Each supercuspidal packet of cardinality 4 is accompanied by a singleton packet for SL_1(D). We compute the depths of the irreducible constituents of all these L-packets …
By computing reducibility points of parabolically induced representations, we construct, to within at most two unramified quadratic characters, the Langlands parameter of an arbitrary depth zero irreducible cuspidal representation $π$ of a classical group (which may be not-quasi-split) over a nonarchimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. From this, we can explicitly describe all the irreducible cuspidal representations in the union of one, two, or four L-packets, containing $π$. These results generalize the work of DeBacker-Reeder (in the case of classical groups) from regular to …
In spirit of Gan-Ichino's work on the Arthur's multiplicity formula for metaplectic groups, we have established the Arthur's multiplicity formula for even orthogonal or unitary groups with Witt index less than or equal to one. In that multiplicity formula, some local packets defined using the stable range theta lifts are involved. In this paper, we prove that at non-Archimedean places, the definition of the local packets involved in that multiplicity formula is independent of the choice of the dual-pairs used in their construction. Moreover, at those places where the groups are quasi-split, we…
Using the results of J. Arthur on the representation theory of classical groups with additional work by Colette Moeglin and its relation with representations of affine Hecke algebras established by the author, we show that the category of smooth complex representations of a split $p$-adic classical group and its pure inner forms is naturally decomposed into subcategories which are equivalent to a tensor product of categories of unipotent representations of classical groups (in the sense of G. Lusztig). A statement of this kind had been conjecture by G. Lusztig. All classical groups (general li…
Langlands defined L-packets for real reductive groups. In order to refine the local Langlands correspondence, Adams-Barbasch-Vogan combined L-packets over all real forms belonging to an inner class. Using different methods, Kaletha also defines such combined L-packets with a refinement to the local Langlands correspondence. We prove that the L-packets of Adams-Barbasch-Vogan and Kaletha are the same and are parameterized identically.
Arthur has conjectured the existence of what are now known as Arthur packets of representations of reductive algebraic groups over local and global fields. In the case of classical groups he subsequently gave a definition of these packets, using local and global methods. For general real groups, an alternative approach to the definition of Arthur packets has been given by Adams-Barbasch-Vogan. This construction is purely local and uses geometric methods. Our main result is that these two definitions agree in the case of real classical groups.
Relying on work of Kashiwara-Schapira and Schmid-Vilonen, we describe the behaviour of characteristic cycles with respect to the operation of geometric induction, the geometric counterpart of taking parabolic or cohomological induction in representation theory. By doing this, we are able to describe to some extent the characteristic cycle associated to an induced representation, in terms of the characteristic cycle of the representation being induced. More precisely, under the hypothesis that the infinitesimal character is regular (and dominant), we show that the characteristic cycle of an ind…
We prove the conjectural endoscopic transfer of L-packets for the local Langlands correspondence for pure inner forms of unramified p-adic groups and depth-zero parameters established by DeBacker and Reeder. More precisely, we show that under mild conditions on the residual characteristic, endoscopic induction identifies an unstable character of such an L-packet with the stable character of the corresponding endoscopic L-packet.
