By a Liouville structure on a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ we mean a choice of symplectic potential: that is, a choice of one-form $\theta$ on $M$ such that ${\rm d} \theta = \omega$. We determine precisely all the automorphisms of a…
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…
