Given a compact Gelfand pair (G,K) and a locally compact group L, we characterize the class P_K^\sharp(G,L) of continuous positive definite functions f:G\times L\to \C which are bi-invariant in the G-variable with respect to K. The…

Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields and let $d$, $m$ be nonnegative integers of distinct parities. Fix admissible irreducible tempered representations $\pi$ and $\sigma$ of $GL_d(E)$ and $GL_m(E)$ respectively. We assume…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra. We call a pair $(G, B)$ a Gelfand theory for $A$ if the following axioms are satisfied: (G 1) $B$ is a $C^\ast$-algebra, and $G : A \to B$ is a homomorphism; (G 2) the assignment $L \mapsto G^{-1}(L)$ is a…

We prove that certain classical groups $G\subseteq {\rm GL}(d,\mathbb{R}^d)$ serve to characterize ordinary polynomials in $d$ real variables as elements of finite-dimensional subspaces of $C(\mathbb{R}^d)$ that are invariant by changes of…

Let V be a quadratic space with a form q over an arbitrary local field F of characteristic different from 2. Let $W=V \oplus Fe$ with the form Q extending q with Q(e)=1. Consider the standard embedding of O(V) into O(W) and the two-sided…

In this work, we consider a family of Gelfand pairs $(K \ltimes N, N)$ (in short $(K,N)$) where $N$ is a two step nilpotent Lie group, and $K$ is the group of orthogonal automorphisms of $N$. This family has a nice analytic property: almost…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group. Consider the wreath product $G_n := \Gamma^n \rtimes S_n$ and the subgroup $K_n := \Delta_n \times S_n\subseteq G_n$, where $S_n$ is the symmetric group and $\Delta_n$ is the diagonal subgroup of $\Gamma^n$.…

Letting tau denote the inverse transpose automorphism of GL(n,q), a formula is obtained for the number of g in GL(n,q) so that gg^{tau} is equal to a given element h. This generalizes a result of Gow and Macdonald for the special case that…

Let F be a nonarchimedean local field, let D be a division algebra over F, let GL(n) = GL(n,F). Let \nu denote Plancherel measure for GL(n). Each component \Omega in the Bernstein variety \Omega(GL(n)) has several numerical invariants…

We introduce the notion of G-hypergeometric function, where G is a complex Lie group. In the case when G is a complex torus, this notion amounts to the notion of Gelfand's A-hypergeometric function. We show that the integral $\int…

Let $\text{E}/\text{F}$ be a quadratic extension of non-Archimedean local fields with odd residual characteristic. In this paper, we give equivalent conditions for a simple supercuspidal representation $\pi$ of $\text{GL}(n, \text{E})$ to…

The algebra of ${\rm GL}_n$-invariants of $m$-tuples of $n\times n$ matrices with respect to the action by simultaneous conjugation is a classical topic in case of infinite base field. On the other hand, in case of a finite field generators…

For a locally compact, totally disconnected group $G$, a subgroup $H$ and a character $\chi:H \to \mathbb{C}^{\times}$ we define a Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_\chi$ and explore the connection between commutativity of $\mathcal{H}_\chi$ and…

This paper is motivated by several combinatorial actions of the affine Weyl group of type $C_n$. Addressing a question of David Vogan, it was shown in an earlier paper that these permutation representations are essentialy…
