Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field, let $E$ be a Galois quadratic extension of $F$ and let $G$ be a quasisplit group defined over $F$; a conjecture by Dipendra Prasad states that the Steinberg representation of $G(E)$ is then…
Let $K$ be a non-archimedean local field of residual characteristic $p\neq 2$. Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $K$, let $\theta$ be an involution of $G$ over $K$, and let $H$ be the connected component of $\theta$-fixed subgroup…
This is (the English translation of) a lecture given at a one day conference in memory of F. Bruhat held at the Institut Poincar\'e, Paris. We discuss the history and significance of the Bruhat decomposition of a reductive group.
Let $G$ be a reductive group over a nonarchimedean local field $F$. In the quest for a classification of irreducible smooth representations of $G$, it is critical to understand the case of supercuspidal representations -- those whose matrix…
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…
We prove Dipendra Prasad's conjecture on the distinction of the Steinberg representation for symmetric spaces of the form G(E)/G(F), where G is a split reductive group defined over F and E/F an unramified quadratic extension of…
For an essentially tame supercuspidal representation $\pi$ of a connected reductive $p$-adic group $G$, we establish two distinct and complementary sufficient conditions for the irreducible components of its restriction to a maximal compact…
The Bruhat-Tits theory is a key ingredient in the construction of irreducible smooth representations of $p$-adic reductive groups. We describe generalizations to arbitrary such representations of several results recently obtained in the…
Let $d \ge 1$. We study a subspace of the space of automorphic forms of $\mathrm{GL}_d$ over a global field of positive characteristic (or, a function field of a curve over a finite field). We fix a place $\infty$ of $F$, and we consider…
Let $G$ be an adjoint quasi-simple group defined and split over a non-archimedean local field $K$. We prove that the dual of the Steinberg representation of $G$ is isomorphic to a certain space of harmonic cochains on the Bruhat-Tits…
Schneider-Stuhler and Vigneras have used cosheaves on the affine Bruhat-Tits building to construct natural finite type projective resolutions for admissible representations of reductive p-adic groups in characteristic not equal to p. We use…
We study the distinction of the Steinberg representation of a split reductive group $G$ with respect to a split symmetric subgroup $H \subset G$. We relate this distinction problem to a problem about the existence of a non-zero harmonic…
We apply the theory of branches in Bruhat-Tits trees, developed in previous works by the second author and others, to the study of two dimensional representations of finite groups over the ring of integers of a number field. We provide a…
Text of a (pre-dinner) lecture at the Bielefeld workshop "Discrete Categories in Representation Theory", April 20 - 21, 2018. This workshop was organized in order to celebrate the 60th birthday of Dieter Vossieck: his famous paper "The…
An explicit understanding of the (category of all smooth, complex) representations of p-adic groups provides an important tool not just within representation theory. It also has applications to number theory and other areas, and, in…
This paper is originally designed as a part of revision of the author's preprint math.AG/9908174 "P-adic Schwarzian triangle groups of Mumford type". Recently, Yves Andr'e pointed out a flaw in that preprint; more precisely, Proposition II…
In 1979 Lusztig proposed a conjectural construction of supercuspidal representations of reductive p-adic groups, which is similar to the well known construction of Deligne and Lusztig in the setting of finite reductive groups. We present a…
This work presents an approach towards the representation theory of the braid groups $B_n$. We focus on finite-dimensional representations over the field of Laurent series which can be obtained from representations of infinitesimal braids,…
The purpose of this informal article is to introduce the reader to some of the objects and methods of the theory of p-adic representations. My hope is that students and mathematicians who are new to the subject will find it useful as a…
We take some initial steps towards illuminating the (hypothetical) $p$-adic local Langlands functoriality principle relating Galois representations of a $p$-adic field $L$ and admissible unitary Banach space representations of $G(L)$ when…
