On a Bruhat decomposition related to the Shalika subgroup of $GL(2n)$
Abstract
Let be a non-archimedean local field or a finite field. In this article, we obtain an explicit and complete set of double coset representatives for where is the Shalika subgroup and a maximal parabolic subgroup of the group of invertible matrices. We compute the cardinality of and also give an alternate perspective on the double cosets arising intrinsically from certain subgroups which are relevant for applications in representation theory. Finally, if is a maximal parabolic subgroup of the type we prove that is in one to one correspondence with leading to a Bruhat decomposition. The results and proofs discussed in this article are valid over any arbitrary field even though our motivation is from representation theory of -adic and finite linear groups.
