Let $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a finite extension. We explore the universal supersingular mod $p$ representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(F)$ through computing a basis of their invariant space under the pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup. This generalizes works…
We study normal reflection subgroups of complex reflection groups. Our approach leads to a refinement of a theorem of Orlik and Solomon to the effect that the generating function for fixed-space dimension over a reflection group is a…
We study representations of GL(n) appearing as quotients of a tensor of exceptional representations, in the sense of Kazhdan and Patterson. Such representations are called distinguished. We characterize distinguished principal series…
For each subgroup of GL_2(F_p) or order divisible by p, generated by (pseudo-)reflections, we compute the ideals of stable and generalized invariants. These groups and these ideals are related to the cohomology of compact Lie groups,…
We show that the cyclotomic Iwasawa--Greenberg Main Conjecture holds for a large class of modular forms with multiplicative reduction at $p$, extending previous results for the good ordinary case. In fact, the multiplicative case is deduced…
We develop an approach to the character theory of certain classes of finite and profinite groups based on the construction of a Lie algebra associated to such a group, but without making use of the notion of a polarization which is central…
We give a general proof of Shahidi's tempered L-function conjecture, which has previously been known in all but one case. One of the consequences is the standard modules conjecture for p-adic groups, which means that the Langlands quotient…
In previous work, the authors introduced the notion of Q-Koszul algebras, as a tool to "model" module categories for semisimple algebraic groups over fields of large characteristics. Here we suggest the model extends to small…
I discuss the problem of realizing families of complex orientable homology theories as families of commutative ring spectra, including a recent result of Jacob Lurie emphasizing the role of p-divisible groups.
The Steinberg tensor product theorem is a fundamental result in the modular representation theory of reductive algebraic groups. It describes any finite-dimensional simple module of highest weight $\lambda$ over such a group as the tensor…
We show that the categories of smooth ${\rm SL}_2({\mathbb Q}_p)$-representations (resp. ${\rm GL}_2({\mathbb Q}_p)$-representations) of level $1$ on $p$-torsion modules are equivalent with certain explicitly described equivariant…
By a global approach, we prove the arithmetic fundamental lemma conjecture for unitary groups in $n$ variables over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ when $p\geq n$.
For $G$ a finite group, $k$ a field of prime characteristic $p$, and $S$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$, the Sylow permutation module $\mathrm{Ind}^G_S(k)$ plays a role in diverse facets of representation theory and group theory, ranging from…
I will survey some results in the theory of modular representations of a reductive $p$-adic group, in positive characteristic $\ell \neq p$ and $\ell=p$.
We prove that every finite dimensional representation of a finite group over a field of characteristic p admits a finite resolution by p-permutation modules. The proof involves a reformulation in terms of derived categories.
We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a…
We prove the conjugacy of Sylow $p$-subgroups of linear pseudofinite groups under the assumption of the existence of a finite Sylow $p$-subgroup. We also give an example of a linear pseudofinite group with non-conjugate Sylow $2$-subgroups.
We describe two conjectures, one strictly stronger than the other, that give descriptions of the integral Bernstein center for GL_n(F) (that is, the center of the category of smooth W(k)[GL_n(F)]-modules, for F a p-adic field and k an…
For p odd, the Lie group SO_0(p+1,p+1) has a family of unitary degenerate principal series representations realized on the space of real (p+1) by (p+1) skew symmetric matrices, similar to the Stein's complementary series for SL(2n,C) or…
We construct a categorification of the modular data associated with every family of unipotent characters of the spetsial complex reflection group $G(d,1,n)$. The construction of the category follows the decomposition of the Fourier matrix…
