Let (G,H) be one of the equal rank reductive dual pairs (Mp_{2n},O_{2n+1}) or (U_n,U_n) over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero. It is well-known that the theta correspondence establishes a bijection between certain…

Let G be a finite group, let N be a normal subgroup of G, and let theta in Irr(N) be a G-invariant character. We fix a prime p, and we introduce a canonical partition of Irr(G|theta) relative to p. We call each member B_theta of this…

Let p be a prime, B a p-block of a finite group G and b its Brauer correspondent. According to the Alperin-McKay Conjecture, there exists a bijection between the set of irreducible ordinary characters of height zero of B and those of b. In…

Let K be a non-archimedean local field and let G be a connected reductive K-group which splits over an unramified extension of K. We investigate supercuspidal unipotent representations of the group G(K). We establish a bijection between the…

We prove Clifford theoretic results on the representations of finite groups which only hold in characteristic $2$. Let $G$ be a finite group, let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$ and let $\varphi$ be an irreducible $2$-Brauer character of…

Let V be an 2n-dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic. Let G = GL(V), and H = Sp(V) the symplectic group contained in G. For a positive integer r > 1, we conisder the variety X = G/H \times…

Let $N$ be normal subgroup of a finite group $G$, $p$ be a prime, $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $\theta$ be a $P$-invariant irreducible character of $N$. Suppose that $G/N$ is a $p$-solvable group. In this note we show that,…

We study the validity of the local theta correspondence over a non-archimedean local field in the context of modular representation theory \textit{i.e.} for representations with coefficient fields of positive characteristic. For a…

Let $G$ be a discrete group with property (T). It is a standard fact that, in a unitary representation of $G$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, almost invariant vectors are close to invariant vectors, in a quantitative way. We begin by…

Let $G$ be a complex reductive group and $H=G^{\theta}$ be its fixed point subgroup under a Galois involution $\theta$. We show that any $H$-distinguished representation $\pi$ (i.e $\mathrm{dim}_{\mathbb{C}}\left(\pi^{*}\right)^{H}\neq0$)…

We generalize certain parts of the theory of group rings to the twisted case. Let G be a finite group acting (possibly trivially) on a field L of characteristic coprime to the order of the kernel of this operation. Let K in L be the fixed…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a totally real field $F$ which is compact modulo center at archimedean places. We find congruences modulo an arbitrary power of p between the space of arbitrary automorphic forms on $G(\mathbb…

For every odd prime $p$, we exhibit families of irreducible Artin representations $\tau$ with the property that for every elliptic curve $E$ the order of the zero of the twisted $L$-function $L(E,\tau,s)$ at $s\!=\!1$ must be a…

Let $G$ be the group of rational points of a split connected reductive group over a nonarchimedean local field of residue characteristic $p$. Let $I$ be a pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup of $G$ and let $R$ be a commutative quasi-Frobenius ring. If…

Given a character triple $(G,N,\theta)$, which means that $G$ is a finite group with $N \vartriangleleft G$ and $\theta\in{\rm Irr}(N)$ is $G$-invariant, we introduce the notion of a $\pi$-quasi extension of $\theta$ to $G$ where $\pi$ is…

Let $R$ be a root datum with affine Weyl group $W^e$, and let $H = H (R,q)$ be an affine Hecke algebra with positive, possibly unequal, parameters $q$. Then $H$ is a deformation of the group algebra $\mathbb C [W^e]$, so it is natural to…

Consider an irreducible, admissible representation $\pi$ of GL(2,$F$) whose restriction to GL(2,$F)^+$ breaks up as a sum of two irreducible representations $\pi_+ + \pi_-$. If $\pi=r_{\theta}$, the Weil representation of GL(2,$F$) attached…

Let $G$ be a group acting on a field $L$, and suppose that $L /L^G$ is a finite extension. We show that the category of semilinear representations of $G$ over $L$ can be described in terms of the category of linear representations of $H$,…

A $GL_d$-pseudocharacter is a function from a group $\Gamma$ to a ring $k$ satisfying polynomial relations which make it "look like" the character of a representation. When $k$ is an algebraically closed field, Taylor proved that…
