Abstract

Let GG be a symplectic group over a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and odd residual characteristic. Given an irreducible cuspidal representation of G, we determine its Langlands parameter (equivalently, its Jordan blocks in the language of Moeglin) in terms of the local data from which the representation is explicitly constructed, up to a possible unramified twist in each block of the parameter. We deduce a Ramification Theorem for GG, giving a bijection between the set of endo-parameters for GG and the set of restrictions to wild inertia of discrete Langlands parameters for GG, compatible with the local Langlands correspondence. The main tool consists in analysing the intertwining Hecke algebra of a good cover, in the sense of Bushnell--Kutzko, for parabolic induction from a cuspidal representation of G×GLnG\times\mathrm{GL}_n, seen as a maximal Levi subgroup of a bigger symplectic group, in order to determine its (ir)reducibility; a criterion of Moeglin then relates this to Langlands parameters.
