Abstract

The main question we are going to address in this paper is: How much does the representation theory of the pp-adic group GLn(D)\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathcal{D}) depend on the pp-adic division algebra D\mathcal{D}? Let D\mathcal{D} be a central division algebra defined over some locally compact non-archimedean local field. Using Bushnell-Kutzko theory of types and S\'echerre-Stevens decomposition of spherical Hecke algebras associated to types, we obtain that the cuspidal blocks in the Bernstein decomposition of the category R(GLn(D))\mathcal{R} \left( \mathrm{GL}_n(\mathcal{D}) \right) of smooth complex representations of GLn(D)\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathcal{D}) do not depend on the pp-adic division algebra D\mathcal{D}. In particular, when n=1n=1 or 22, the category R(GLn(D))\mathcal{R} \left( \mathrm{GL}_n(\mathcal{D}) \right) does not depend on the pp-adic division algebra D\mathcal{D}.
