For Brylinski-Deligne covering groups of an arbitrary split reductive group, we consider theta representations attached to certain exceptional genuine characters. The goal of the paper is to determine when a theta representation has exactly…

For a Brylinski-Deligne covering group of a general linear group, we calculate some values of unramified Whittaker functions for certain representations that are analogous to the theta representations.

We prove a formula for the dimension of Whittaker functionals of irreducible constituents of a regular unramified genuine principal series for covering groups. The formula explicitly relates such dimension to the Kazhdan-Lusztig…

Whittaker functions are special functions that arise in $p$-adic number theory and representation theory. They may be defined on representations of reductive groups as well as their metaplectic covering groups: fascinatingly, many of their…

For a unitary unramified genuine principal series representation of a covering group, we study the associated R-group. We prove a formula relating the R-group to the dimension of the Whittaker space for the irreducible constituents of such…

We describe an evolving and conjectural extension of the Langlands program for a class of nonlinear covering groups of algebraic origin studied by Brylinski-Deligne. In particular, we describe the construction of an L-group extension of…

In this article we explore the interplay between two generalizations of the Whittaker model, namely the Klyachko models and the degenerate Whittaker models, and two functorial constructions, namely base change and automorphic induction, for…

We give a complete analysis of the projective unitary irreducible representations of the Poincar\'e group in 1+2 dimensions applying Mackey theorem and using an explicit formula for the universal covering group of the Lorentz group in 1+2…

Let $E$ be a non-Archimedian local field of characteristic zero and residue characteristic $p$. Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $E$ and $\pi$ an irreducible admissible representation of $G={\bf G}(E)$. A result of…

We extend the notion of generalized Whittaker models by allowing them to be built upon smooth irreducible representations of unipotent subgroups of a $p$-adic reductive group that are not necessarily characters, nor induced from Weil…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field containing the full group of $n^{th}$ roots of 1 and let $ \widetilde{SL_2(F)}$ be the $n$-fold cover of $SL_2(F)$ constructed by Kubota. In this paper we compute the dimension of the space of Whittaker…

An extensive group-theoretical treatment of linear relativistic field equations on Minkowski spacetime of arbitrary dimension D>2 is presented in these lecture notes. To start with, the one-to-one correspondence between linear relativistic…

Starting from some linear algebraic data (a Weyl-group invariant bilinear form) and some arithmetic data (a bilinear Steinberg symbol), we construct a cover of a Kac-Moody group generalizing the work of Matsumoto. Specializing our…

We consider an $n$-fold Brylinski-Deligne cover of a reductive group over a $p$-adic field. Since the space of Whittaker functionals of an irreducible genuine representation of such a cover is not one-dimensional, one can consider a local…

We show that the theta representations on certain covers of general linear groups support certain types of unique functionals. The proof involves two types of Fourier coefficients. The first are semi-Whittaker coefficients, which generalize…

Discrete series Whittaker functions on $Spin(2n, 2)$ are studied. The dimensions of the space of both algebraic and continuous Whittaker models are explicitly determined. They are described by a sum of dimensions of irreducible…

Matrix elements and spherical functions of irreducible representations of the de Sitter group are studied on the various homogeneous spaces of this group. It is shown that a universal covering of the de Sitter group gives rise to quaternion…

We revisit the local metaplectic correspondence previously constructed and studied by Flicker and Kazhdan. After restoring and generalizing some of their results, we get several interesting applications to the representation theory of a…

A double covering of the proper orthochronous Lorentz group is understood as a complexification of the special unimodular group of second order (a double covering of the 3-dimensional rotation group). In virtue of such an interpretation the…

Kottwitz suggested to study all extended pure inner forms together in the local Langlands correspondence for linear reductive groups. We extend this philosophy to a large class of covers, including those defined by Brylinski and Deligne,…
