Let $F$ be a finite extension of ${\mathbb{Q}} \_p$. Any dihedral supercuspidal representation of $GL \_2 (K)$ arises from an admissible multiplicative character $ω$ of a quadratic extension $L$ of $K$. We show that such a representation is distinguished for $GL \_2 (F)$ if and only if $L$ biquadratic over $F$ and $ω$ restricted to invertibles of one of the two other quadratic extensions of $F$ in $L$ is trivial. We then observe a similar statement for the principal series and we study all dihedral representations.
The author's work with Murnaghan on distinguished tame supercuspidal representations is re-examined using a simplified treatment of Jiu-Kang Yu's construction of tame supercuspidal representations of $p$-adic reductive groups. This leads to a unification of aspects of the theories of distinguished cuspidal representations over $p$-adic and finite fields.
In the following article, we give a description of the distingushed irreducible principal series representations of the general linear group over a p-adic field in terms of inducing datum. This provides a counter-example to a conjecture of Jacquet about distinction (Conjecture 1 in U.K Anandavardhanan, "Distinguished non-Archimedean representations ", Proc. Hyderabad Conference on Algebra and Number Theory, 2005, 183-192).
Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field, and $K$ a quadratic extension of $F$. Using Tadic's classification of the unitary dual of $GL(n,K)$, we give the list of irreducible unitary representations of this group distinguished by $GL(n,F)$, in terms of distinguished discrete series. As it is known that a generalised Steinberg representation $St(k,ρ)$ is distinguished if and only if the cuspidal representation $ρ$ is $η^{k-1}$-distinguished, for $η$ the character of $F^*$ with kernel the norms of $K^*$, this actually gives a classification of distinguished unitary representations in terms of distinguished c…
Let $F$ be a non archimedean local field of characteristic zero, we give a classification of generic representations of $GL(n,F)$ distinguished by a maximal Levi subgroup, in terms of inducing discrete series.
Let $\F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field, $q$ be the cardinality of its residue field, and $\R$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $\ell$ not dividing $q$.We classify all irredu\-cible smooth $\R$-representations of $\GL\_n(\F)$ having a nonzero $\GL\_{n-1}(\F)$-inva\-riant linear form, when $q$ is not congruent to $1$ mod $\ell$.Partial results in the case when $q$ is $1$ mod $\ell$ show that, unlike the complex case, the space of $\GL\_{n-1}(\F)$-invariant linear forms has dimension $2$ for certain irreducible representations.
We consider the parabolically induced representations of the symmetric space $SO_4\backslash G_2$ over a p-adic field using the geometric lemma when the inducing parabolic is $P_β$. Using an explicit description of the embedding of $G_2$ in $GL_8$, we characterize precisely the induced representations which are $(SO_4, χ)$-distinguished, given a certain type of involutions is chosen.
Let $K/F$ be a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields, and $n$ a positive integer. A smooth irreducible representation of the group $GL(n,K)$ is said to be distinguished, if it admits on its space a nonzero $GL(n,F)$-invariant linear form. In the present work, we classify genric distinguished representations of the group $GL(n,K)$ in terms of inducing quasi-square-integrable representations. This has as a consequence the truth of the expected equality between the Rankin-Selberg type Asai $L$-function of a generic representation, and the Asai $L$-function of its Langlands parameter.
For a $p$-adic field $F$, the embeddings of a tame supercuspidal representation of $G= {\rm GL}_n (F)$ in the space of smooth functions on the set of symmetric matrices in $G$ are determined.
Based on recent work of Kaletha, we apply Hakim--Murnaghan's result to study distinguished regular supercuspidal representations of tamely ramified reductive $p$-adic groups. Assuming $p$ is sufficiently large, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for regular supercuspidal representations to be distinguished. We also investigate the relation between the distinction problem and the Langlands functoriality, and confirm a conjecture of Lapid for regular depth-zero or epipelagic supercuspidal representations.
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 …
We construct, for any symplectic, unitary or special orthogonal group over a locally compact nonarchimedean local field of odd residual characteristic, a type for each Bernstein component of the category of smooth representations, using Bushnell--Kutzko's theory of covers. Moreover, for a component corresponding to a cuspidal representation of a maximal Levi subgroup, we prove that the Hecke algebra is either abelian, or a generic Hecke algebra on an infinite dihedral group, with parameters which are, at least in principle, computable via results of Lusztig.
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 article, we proove that it is equivalent for a generic irreducible representation of GL(n,K), with K a p-adic field, to be distinguished, and for its Rankin-Selberg Asai L-function to have an exceptional pole at zero. This extends a criterion of Kable claiming that a discrete series representation is distinguished if and only if its Asai L-function has a pole at zero. As an application we compute by local methods Asai L-functions of ordinary representations of GL(2,K), in particular we give a formula for Asai L-functions of principal series representations of GL(2,K).
Let $K/F$ be a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields, $σ$ the nontrivial element of the Galois group of $K$ over $F$, and $π$ a quasi-square-integrable representation of $GL(n,K)$. Denoting by $π^{\vee}$ the smooth contragredient of $π$, and by $π^σ$ the representation $π\circ σ$, we show that the representation of $GL(2n, K)$ obtained by normalized parabolic induction of the representation $π^\vee \otimes π^σ$ is distinguished with respect to $GL(2n,F)$. This is a step towards the classification of distinguished generic representations of general linear groups over $p$-adic fields.
The notion of relative cuspidality for distinguished representations attached to $p$-adic symmetric spaces is introduced. A characterization of relative cuspidality in terms of Jacquet modules is given and a generalization of Jacquet's subrepresentation theorem to the relative case (symmetric space case) is established.
We study invariant distributions on the tangent space to a symmetric space. We prove that an invariant distribution with the property that both its support and the support of its Fourier transform are contained in the set of non-distinguished nilpotent orbits, must vanish. We deduce, using recent developments in the theory of invariant distributions on symmetric spaces that the symmetric pair (GL(2n,R),Sp(2n,R)) is a Gelfand pair. More precisely, we show that for any irreducible smooth admissible Frechet representation $(π,E)$ of GL(2n,R) the space of continuous functionals $Hom_{Sp_{2n}(R)}(E…
We further develop and simplify the general theory of distinguished tame supercuspidal representations of reductive $p$-adic groups due to Hakim and Murnaghan, as well as the analogous theory for finite reductive groups due to Lusztig. We apply our results to study the representations of ${\rm GL}_n(F)$, with $n$ odd and $F$ a nonarchimedean local field, that are distinguished with respect to an orthogonal group in $n$ variables. In particular, we determine precisely when a supercuspidal representation is distinguished with respect to an orthogonal group and, if so, that the space of distingui…
Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of fields, and $G$ a connected quasi-split reductive group over $F$. Let $G^{op}$ be the opposition group obtained by twisting $G$ by the duality involution considered by Prasad. Assume that the field $F$ is finite. Let $π$ be an irreducible generic representation of $G(E)$. When $π$ is a Shintani base change lift of some representation of $G^{op}(F)$, we give an explicit nonzero $G(F)$-invariant vector in terms of the Whittaker vector of $π$. This shows particularly that $π$ is $G(F)$-distinguished. When the field $F$ is $p$-adic, the paper also proves that …
We prove an integral formula computing multiplicities of square-integrable representations relative to Galois pairs over $p$-adic fields and we apply this formula to verify two consequences of a conjecture of Dipendra Prasad. One concerns the exact computation of the multiplicity of the Steinberg representation and the other the invariance of multiplicities by transfer among inner forms.
Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and odd residual characteristic. Let $X$ be the $p$-adic symmetric space $X = H \backslash G$, where $G = \mathbf{GL}_{2n}(F)$ and $H = \mathbf{GL}_n(F) \times \mathbf{GL}_n(F)$. We verify a conjecture of Sakellaridis and Venkatesh on the Langlands parameters of certain representations in the discrete spectrum of $X$.
This paper studies the behavior of Jiu-Kang Yu's tame supercuspidal representations relative to involutions of reductive p-adic groups. Symmetric space methods are used to illuminate various aspects of Yu's construction. Necessary conditions for a tame supercuspidal representation of G to be distinguished by (the fixed points of) an involution of G are expressed in terms of properties of the G-orbit of the associated G-datum. When these conditions are satisfied, the question of whether a tame supercuspidal representation is distinguished reduces to the question of whether certain cuspidal repr…
We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a result of M. Heumos and S. Rallis our methods, unlike their purely local technique, re- lies on the theory of automorphic forms. The results of this paper together with later works by the authors imply that the family of representations studied in this paper contains all irreducible, unitary representations of the general linear group that are distin- guished b…
We study a relation between distinction and special values of local invariants for representations of the general linear group over a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields. We show that the local Rankin-Selberg root number of any pair of distinguished representation is trivial and as a corollary we obtain an analogue for the global root number of any pair of distinguished cuspidal representations. We further study the extent to which the gamma factor at $1/2$ is trivial for distinguished representations as well as the converse problem.

The description of irreducible representations of a group G can be seen as a question in harmonic analysis; namely, decomposing a suitable space of functions on G into irreducibles for the action of G x G by left and right multiplication. For a split p-adic reductive group G over a local non-archimedean field, unramified irreducible smooth representations are in bijection with semisimple conjugacy classes in the ``Langlands dual'' group. We generalize this description to an arbitrary spherical variety X of G as follows: Irreducible unramified quotients of the space $C_c^\infty(X)$ are in natur…
Let $G$ be a quasi-split tamely ramified connected reductive group defined over a $p$-adic field $F$. We show that if $-1$ is in the $F$-points of the absolute Weyl group of $G$, then self-dual supercuspidal representations of $G(F)$ exist. Now assume further that $G$ is unramified and that the center of $G$ is connected. Let $π$ be a generic self-dual depth-zero regular supercuspidal representation of $G(F)$. We show that the Frobenius-Schur indicator of $π$ is given by the sign by which a certain distinguished element of the center of $G(F)$ of order two acts on $π$.
We exhibit a basis for the space of spherical characters of a distinguished supercuspidal representation $π$ of a connected reductive $p$-adic group, subject to the assumption that $π$ is obtained via induction from a representation of an open compact mod centre subgroup. We derive an integral formula for each spherical character belonging to the basis. This formula involves integration of a particular kind of matrix coefficient of $π$. We also obtain a similar formula for the function realizing the spherical character. In addition, we determine, subject to some conditions, which of these sphe…
Let $K/F$ be a quadratic extension of p-adic fields. The Bernstein-Zelevinsky's classification asserts that generic representations are parabolically induced from quasi-square-integrable representations. We show, following a method developed by Cogdell and Piatetski-Shapiro, that the equality of the Rankin-Selberg type Asai $L$-function of generic representations of $GL(n,K)$ and of the Asai $L$-function of the Langlands parameter, is equivalent to the truth of a conjecture about classification of distinguished generic representations in terms of the inducing quasi-square-integrable representa…
If $E/F$ is a quadratic extension $p$-adic fields, we first prove that the $\mathrm{SL}_n(F)$-distinguished representations inside a distinguished unitary L-packet of $\mathrm{SL}_n(E)$ are precisely those admitting a degenerate Whittaker model with respect to a degenerate character of $N(E)/N(F)$. Then we establish a global analogue of this result. For this, let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of number fields and let $π$ be an $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{A}_F)$-distinguished square integrable automorphic representation of $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{A}_E)$. Let $(σ,d)$ be the unique pair associated to …
Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of finite fields. By a result of Gow, an irreducible representation $π$ of $G = {\rm GL}_n(E)$ has at most one non-zero $H$-invariant vector, up to multiplication by scalars, when $H$ is ${\rm GL}_n(F)$ or ${\rm U}(n,E/F)$. If $π$ does have an $H$-invariant vector it is said to be $H$-distinguished. It is known, from the work of Gow, that $H$-distinction is characterized by base change from ${\rm U}(n,E/F)$, due to Kawanaka, when $H$ is ${\rm GL}_n(F)$ (resp. from ${\rm GL}_n(F)$, due to Shintani, when $H$ is ${\rm U}(n,E/F)$). Assuming $π$ is generic and $H$…
Let $F$ be either $\mathbb{R}$ or a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and let $G$ be a finite central extension of the group of $F$-points of a reductive group defined over $F$. Also let $π$ be a smooth representation of $G$ (Frechet of moderate growth if $F=\mathbb{R}$). For each nilpotent orbit $\mathcal{O}$ we consider a certain Whittaker quotient $π_{\mathcal{O}}$ of $π$. We define the Whittaker support WS$(π)$ to be the set of maximal $\mathcal{O}$ among those for which $π_{\mathcal{O}}\neq 0$. In this paper we prove that all $\mathcal{O}\in\mathrm{WS}(π)$ are quasi-admissible nilpotent…
Let X be a smooth projective connected curve over an algebraically closed field k of positive characteristic. Let G be a reductive group over k, γbe a dominant coweight for G, and E be an \ell-adic \check{G}-local system on X, where \check{G} denotes the Langlands dual group. Let \Bun_G be the moduli stack of G-bundles on X. Under some conditions on the triple (G,γ,E) we propose a conjectural construction of a distinguished E-Hecke automorphic sheaf on \Bun_G. We are motivated by a construction of automorphic forms suggested by Ginzburg, Rallis and Soudry in [6,7]. We also generalize Laumon's …
Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field with residue field of cardinality $q$. To each irreducible representation of $GL(n,F)$, we attach a local Euler factor $L^{BF}(q^{-s},q^{-t},π)$ via the Rankin-Selberg method, and show that it is equal to the expected factor $L(s+t+1/2,ϕ_π)L(2s,Λ^2\circ ϕ_π)$ of the Langlands' parameter $ϕ_π$ of $π$. The corresponding local integrals were introduced in [BF], and studied in [M15]. This work is in fact the continuation of [M15]. The result is a consequence of the fact that if $δ$ is a discrete series representation of $GL(2m,F)$, and $χ$ is a character of Levi subgoup…
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…
