A Tannakian description of the local Kaletha gerbe

Number Theory 2026-01-13 v1

Abstract

We construct, for a pp-adic field FF, an explicit semisimple Tannakian category RigIsocF\text{RigIsoc}_{F} whose category of fiber functors recovers Kaletha's Galois gerbe EKal\mathcal{E}_{\text{Kal}}. We then classify and write down the simple objects in RigIsocF\text{RigIsoc}_{F}, all of which come from elliptic twisted Levi subgroups of GLn\mathrm{GL}_{n}.
