Let F be a non-Archimedean locally compact field of residue characteristic p, let G be an inner form of GL(n,F) with n>0, and let l be a prime number different from p. We describe the block decomposition of the category of finite length…

This paper contains an exposition of the theory of character sheaves for reductive groups and some attempts to extend it to other cases: unipotent groups, reductive groups modulo the unipotent radical of a parabolic.

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of residual characteristic $p$. Let $\mathbb{G}$ be a reductive group defined over $F$ which splits over a tamely ramified extension and set $G=\mathbb{G}(F)$. We assume that $p$ does not divide the…

We determine character sheaves for symmetric pairs associated to spin groups. In particular, we determine the cupsidal character sheaves and show that they can be obtained via the nearby cycle construction of [GVX] and its generalisation in…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field, $A$ be a central simple $F$-algebra, and $G$ be the multiplicative group of $A$. To construct types for supercuspidal representations of $G$, simple types by S\'echerre--Stevens and Yu's…

The building blocks for irreducible smooth representations of p-adic groups are the supercuspidal representations. In these notes that are an expansion of a lecture series given during the IHES summer school 2022 we will explore an explicit…

With a view to determining character values of finite reductive groups at unipotent elements, we prove a number of results concerning inner products of generalised Gelfand-Graev characters with characteristic functions of character sheaves,…

Even with the introduction of supercharacter theories, the representation theory of many unipotent groups remains mysterious. This paper constructs a family of supercharacter theories for normal pattern groups in a way that exhibit many of…

We give a geometric model for the category of coherent sheaves over the weighted projective line of type $(p,q)$ in terms of an annulus with marked points on its boundary. We establish a bijection between indecomposable sheaves over the…

We combine the ideas of a Harish-Chandra--Howe local character expansion, which can be centred at an arbitrary semisimple element, and a Kim--Murnaghan asymptotic expansion, which so far has been considered only around the identity. We show…

We identify two seemingly disparate structures: supercharacters, a useful way of doing Fourier analysis on the group of unipotent uppertriangular matrices with coefficients in a finite field, and the ring of symmetric functions in…

The classification of irreducible, spherical characters of the infinite-dimensional unitary/orthogonal/symplectic groups can be obtained by finding all possible limits of normalized, irreducible characters of the corresponding…

The character formulas of Sally and Shalika are an early triumph in $p$-adic harmonic analysis, but, to date, the calculations underlying the formulas have not been available. In this paper, which should be viewed as a precursor of the…

We present a conjecture (and a proof for G=SL(2)) generalizing a result of J. Arthur which expresses a character value of a cuspidal representation of a $p$-adic group as a weighted orbital integral of its matrix coefficient. It also…

In geometric representation theory, one often wishes to describe representations realized on spaces of invariant functions as trace functions of equivariant perverse sheaves. In the case of principal series representations of a connected…

We describe a special case of base change of certain supercuspidal representations from a ramified unitary group to a general linear group, both defined over a p-adic field of odd residual characteristic. Roughly speaking, we require the…

A definition is offered of the factorial characters of the general linear group, the symplectic group and the orthogonal group in an odd dimensional space. It is shown that these characters satisfy certain flagged Jacobi-Trudi identities.…

Gelfand-Graev characters and their degenerate counterparts have an important role in the representation theory of finite groups of Lie type. Using a characteristic map to translate the character theory of the finite unitary groups into the…
