Abstract

We compute the stable wave front set of theta representations for certain tame Brylinski-Deligne covers of a connected reductive pp-adic group. The computation involves two main inputs. First we use a theorem of Okada, adapted to covering groups, to reduce the computation of the wave front set to computing the Kawanaka wave front set of certain representations of finite groups of Lie type. Second, to compute the Kawanaka wave front sets we use Lusztig's formula. This requires a careful analysis of the action of the pro-pp Iwahori-Hecke algebra on the theta representation, using the structural results about Hecke algebras developed by Gao-Gurevich-Karasiewicz and Wang.
