Abstract

Let GG be a connected reductive group over Fq\overline{\mathbb{F}}_q and let ρ:GGLn\rho^\vee:G^\vee\rightarrow GL_n be an algebraic representation of the dual group GG^\vee. Assuming that GG and ρ\rho^\vee are defined over Fq\mathbb{F}_q, Braverman and Kazhdan defined an operator on the space C(G(Fq))\mathcal{C}(G(\mathbb{F}_q)) of complex valued functions on G(Fq)G(\mathbb{F}_q). In this paper we are interested in the case where GG is either SL2SL_2 or PGL2PGL_2 and ρ\rho^\vee is the symmetric square representation of GG^\vee. We construct a natural G×GG\times G-equivariant embedding GG=GρG\hookrightarrow\mathcal{G}=\mathcal{G}_\rho and an involutive operator (Fourier transform) FG\mathcal{F}^{\mathcal{G}} on the space of functions C(G(Fq))\mathcal{C}(\mathcal{G}(\mathbb{F}_q)) that extends Braverman-Kazhdan's operator.
