We define an involution on the space of compact tempered unipotent representations of inner twists of a split simple $p$-adic group $G$ and investigate its behaviour with respect to restrictions to reductive quotients of maximal compact…
Let $F$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and $G$ be a finite abelian group. If $A=\oplus_{g\in G} A_g$ is a $G$-graded algebra, we study degree-inverting involutions on $A$, i.e., involutions $*$ on $A$ satisfying…
Let G be a connected reductive group over a non-archimedean local field. We say that an irreducible depth-zero (complex) G-representation is non-singular if its cuspidal support is non-singular. We establish a Local Langlands Correspondence…
Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field. Let $\mathcal{R}$ be the Grothendieck ring of complex smooth finite-length representations of the groups $\{GL_n(F)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ taken together, with multiplication defined in the sense of parabolic…
Let pi be a regular, algebraic, essentially self-dual cuspidal automorphic representation of GL_n(A_F), where F is a totally real field and n is at most 5. We show that for all primes l, the l-adic Galois representations associated to pi…
Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field. Let $\Cal W_F$ be the Weil group of $F$ and $\Cal P_F$ the wild inertia subgroup of $\scr W_F$. Let $\hat{\Cal W}_F$ be the set of equivalence classes of irreducible smooth representations of $\Cal…
Let S_d be the symmetric group on d letters and let k be a field of characteristic p>2. Tensoring an irreducible S_d module with the sign representation defines an involution on the p-regular partitions of d. It is suprisingly difficult to…
We prove a long-standing conjecture of Geck which predicts that cuspidal unipotent characters remain irreducible after $\ell$-reduction. To this end, we construct a progenerator for the category of representations of a finite reductive…
Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field and $(\pi, V)$ an irreducible complex representation of $G=GSp(4, F)$ with trivial central character. Let ${\rm Si}(\mathfrak{p}^2)\subset G$ denote the Siegel congruence subgroup of level $\mathfrak{p}^2$ and…
Let $R$ be the homogeneous coordinate ring of the Grassmannian $\mathbb{G}=Gr(2,n)$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p \geq \max\{n-2,3\}$. In this paper we give a description of the decomposition of $R$,…
A parametrization of irreducible unitary representations associated with the regular adjoint orbits of a hyperspecial compact subgroup of a reductive group over a non-dyadic non-archimedean local filed is presented. The parametrization is…
A classical theorem of Wonenburger, Djokovic, Hoffmann and Paige states that an element of the general linear group of a finite-dimensional vector space is the product of two involutions if and only if it is similar to its inverse. We give…
For $G$ a connected, reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of large characteristic, we use the canonical Springer isomorphism between the nilpotent variety of $\mathfrak{g}:=\mathrm{Lie}(G)$ and the unipotent variety of $G$…
Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field. In this article, we consider representations of split special orthogonal groups $\mathrm{SO}_{2n+1}(F)$ and symplectic groups $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(F)$ of rank $n$. We denote by $\pi_1 \times \ldots \times \pi_r…
Let $G$ be the unramified unitary group $U(2, 1)(E/F)$ defined over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of odd residue characteristic $p$, and $B$ be the standard Borel subgroup of $G$. In this note, we study the problem of the restriction of…
Using a general result of Lusztig, we give explicit formulas for the dimensions of K^F-invariants in irreducible representations of G^F, when G=GL_n, F:G->G is a Frobenius map, and K is an F-stable subgroup of finite index in G^theta for…
Let G be a simply connected simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p>0 with root system R, and let ${\mathfrak g}={\cal L}(G)$ be its restricted Lie algebra. Let V be a finite dimensional ${\mathfrak…
Let E be a finite extension of Fp. Using Fontaine's theory of (phi,Gamma)-modules, Colmez has shown how to attach to any irreducible E-linear representation of Gal(Qpbar/Qp) an infinite dimensional smooth irreducible E-linear representation…
If G is a finitely generated group, and A an algebraic group, then Hom(G,A) is a possibly reducible algebraic variety denoted by R_A(G). Here we define the profile function, P_d(R_A(G)), of the representation variety of G over A to be…
Fix an abelian variety $A$ of dimension $g\geq 1$ defined over a number field $K$. For each prime $\ell$, the Galois action on the $\ell$-power torsion points of $A$ induces a representation $\rho_{A,\ell}\colon Gal_K \to…
