Let F be a non-Archimedean local field and let E be an unramified extension of F of degree n>1. To each sufficiently generic multiplicative character of E (the details are explained in the body of the paper) one can associate an irreducible…

We study the so-called sign involutions on twisted forms of abelian varieties, and show that such a sign involution exists if and only if the class in the Weil--Ch\^{a}telet group is annihilated by two. If these equivalent conditions hold,…

A particular orthogonal map on a finite dimensional real quadratic vector space (V,Q) with a non-degenerate quadratic form Q of any signature (p,q) is considered. It can be viewed as a correlation of the vector space that leads to a dual…

Let $G$ be a split (minimal) Kac-Moody group over $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$ with maximal torus $T$, and let $\theta$ be a Cartan-Chevalley involution of $G$, twisted by complex conjugation, and satisfying that $\theta(T)=T$. Furthermore,…

Let $G$ be a simply connected semisimple group over $\mathbb{C}$. We show that a certain involution of an open subset of the affine Grassmannian of $G$, defined previously by Achar and the author, corresponds to the action of the nontrivial…

Let $Q$ be an algebraic group with $q=\Lie Q$ and $V$ a $Q$-module. The index of $V$ is the minimal codimension of the $Q$-orbits in the dual space $V^*$. There is a general inequality, due to Vinberg, relating the index of $V$ and the…

We study, for a locally compact group $G$, the compactifications $(\pi,G^\pi)$ associated with unitary representations $\pi$, which we call {\it $\pi$-Eberlein compactifications}. We also study the Gelfand spectra $\Phi_{\mathcal{A}}(\pi)}$…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional left vector space over a division ring $R$ and $n\ge 3$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{k}$ the Grassmann space of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ and put ${\mathfrak G}_{k}$ for the set of all pairs $(S,U)\in…

Let $G$ and $\tilde G$ be reductive groups over a local field $F$. Let $\eta : \tilde G \to G$ be a $F$-homomorphism with commutative kernel and commutative cokernel. We investigate the pullbacks of irreducible admissible…

We introduce on the abstract level in real Clifford algebras \cl_{p,q} of a non-degenerate quadratic space (V,Q), where Q has signature \epsilon=(p,q), a transposition anti-involution \tp. In a spinor representation, the anti-involution \tp…

For certain quasi-split reductive groups $G$ over a general field $F$, we construct an automorphism $\iota_G$ of $G$ over $F$, well-defined as an element of ${\rm Aut}(G)(F)/jG(F)$ where $j:G(F) \rightarrow {\rm Aut}(G)(F)$ is the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group, let $\theta$ be an involution of $\Gamma$, and let $\rho$ be an irreducible complex representation of $\Gamma$. We bound $\dim \rho^{\Gamma^{\theta}}$ in terms of the smallest dimension of a faithful…

An involution is a permutation that is its own inverse. Given a permutation $\sigma$ of $[n],$ let $\mathbf{N}_{n}(\sigma)$ denote the number of ways to write $\sigma$ as a product of two involutions of $[n].$ If we endow the symmetric…

A skew-morphism of a finite group $G$ is a permutation $\sigma$ on $G$ fixing the identity element, and for which there exists an integer function $\pi$ on $G$ such that $\sigma(xy)=\sigma(x)\sigma^{\pi(x)}(y)$ for all $x,y\in G$. It has…

As a consequence of his numerical local Langlands correspondence for $GL(n)$, Henniart deduced the following theorem: If $F$ is a nonarchimedean local field and if $\pi$ is an irreducible admissible representation of $GL(n,F)$, then, after…

Let $F/F_{0}$ be a quadratic extension of non-archimedean locally compact fields of residue characteristic $p\neq 2$. Let $R$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $p$. For $\pi$ a supercuspidal representation of…

Let $G_1,G_2$ be real reductive groups and $(\pi,V)$ a smooth, irreducible, admissible representation of $G_1 \times G_2$. We prove that $(\pi,V)$ is the completed tensor product of $(\pi_i,V_i)$, $i=1,2$, where $(\pi_i,V_i)$ is a…
