Quasisplit Hecke algebras and symmetric spaces

Abstract

Let (G,K) be a symmetric pair over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different of 2 and let sigma be an automorphism with square 1 of G preserving K. In this paper we consider the set of pairs (O,L) where O is a sigma-stable K-orbit on the flag manifold of G and L is an irreducible K-equivariant local system on O which is "fixed" by sigma. Given two such pairs (O,L), (O',L'), with O' in the closure \bar O of O, the multiplicity space of L' in the a cohomology sheaf of the intersection cohomology of \bar O with coefficients in L (restricted to O') carries an involution induced by sigma and we are interested in computing the dimensions of its +1 and -1 eigenspaces. We show that this computation can be done in terms of a certain module structure over a quasisplit Hecke algebra on a space spanned by the pairs (O,L) as above.

Quasi-Whittaker supermodules over Lie superalgebras

In this paper, we develop a general theory of quasi-Whittaker supermodules over Lie superalgebras induced from an arbitrary ideal. We determine the quasi-Whittaker vectors in universal supermodules, establish an irreducibility criterion, and classify several families of irreducible supermodules. The odd part produces a new irreducibility phenomenon absent from the Lie algebra setting. As applications, we determine all irreducible quasi-Whittaker supermodules over the $N=1$ super Schr\"odinger algebra and the $N=1$ $\frac{3}{2}$-conformal Galilei superalgebra, and over the complete spectrum-generating superalgebra in a special case.

Rankin--Selberg integrals of opposite conductor--one newforms

Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and let $n\geq2$. For $r=n,n+1$, let $\Pi_r$ be an irreducible tempered representation of ${\rm GL}_r(F)$ of conductor one and with trivial central character. We evaluate the Rankin--Selberg integral of opposite newforms in $\Pi_{n+1}\times \Pi_n$ explicitly and show that its central value is nonzero. As an application, this implies a case of Disegni--Zhang's conjecture on the nonvanishing of local relative characters.

Obstructions to Jacobi-Finiteness of Quivers with Potentials

We show that Jacobi-finite potentials need not exist on finite $2$-acyclic quivers. Our main tool is a matrix-valued Golod--Shafarevich--Vinberg inequality for quotients of completed path algebras by finitely many, possibly nonhomogeneous, topological relations. Applied to cyclic derivatives, it yields a potential-dependent obstruction to the finite-dimensionality of completed Jacobian algebras. We then construct a purely quiver-level criterion excluding every Jacobi-finite potential on a given quiver, and exhibit a family of quivers for which every potential has an infinite-dimensional Jacobian algebra.
