Abstract

Let FF be a non-Archimedean local field of characteristic 00, let GG be the group of FF-rational points of a connected reductive group defined over FF and let GG' be the group of FF-rational points of its quasi-split inner form. Given standard modules I(τ,ν)I(\tau ,\nu ) and I(τ,ν)I(\tau ',\nu ') for GG and GG' respectively with τ\tau ' a generic tempered representation, such that the Harish-Chandra's μ\mu -functions of a representation in the supercuspidal support of τ\tau and of a generic essentially square-integral representation in some Jacquet module of τ\tau ' agree (after a suitable identification of the underlying spaces under which ν=ν\nu =\nu '), we show that I(τ,ν)I(\tau ,\nu ) is irreducible whenever I(τ,ν)I(\tau ',\nu ') is. The conditions are satisfied if the Langlands quotients J(τ,ν)J(\tau ,\nu ) and J(τ,ν)J(\tau ',\nu ') of respectively I(τ,ν)I(\tau ,\nu ) and I(τ,ν)I(\tau ',\nu ') lie in the same Vogan LL-packet (whenever this Vogan LL-packet is defined), proving that, for any Vogan LL-packet, all the standard modules whose Langlands quotient is equal to a member of the Vogan LL-packet are irreducible, if and only if this Vogan LL-packet contains a generic representation. The result for generic Vogan LL-packets of quasi-split orthogonal and symplectic groups was proven by Moeglin-Waldspurger and used in their proof of the general case of the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjectures for these Groups.
