Abstract

Let GG be a connected reductive group over a pp-adic field FF, UU the unipotent radical of a minimal parabolic subgroup, ψ\psi a depth-zero non-degenerate character of U(F)U(F), and II an Iwahori subgroup of G(F)G(F). We show that, as a module over the Iwahori-Hecke algebra H{H}, the space of II-fixed vectors in the Gelfand-Graev representation indUGψ\mathrm{ind}_U^G\psi is isomorphic to HHW0sgn{H} \otimes_{{H}_{W_0}} \mathrm{sgn}. Here sgn\mathrm{sgn} is the sign representation of the finite Hecke subalgebra HW0{H}_{W_0} attached to the relative Weyl group. This extends the theorem of Chan-Savin from split groups to all connected reductive groups.
