Simple supercuspidal L-packets of split special orthogonal groups over dyadic fields

We consider the split special orthogonal group $\mathrm{SO}_{N}$ defined over a $p$-adic field. We determine the structure of any $L$-packet of $\mathrm{SO}_{N}$ containing a simple supercuspidal representation (in the sense of Gross--Reeder). We also determine its endoscopic lift to a general linear group. Combined with the explicit local Langlands correspondence for simple supercuspidal representations of general linear groups, this leads us to get an explicit description of the $L$-parameter as a representation of the Weil group of $F$. Our result is new when $p=2$ and our method provides a new proof even when $p\neq2$.

Représentations des quaternions de norme 1

Let F be a local field with finite residue field of characteristic p, D the quaternion division algebra with centre F, and R an algebraically closed field of any characteristic. We classify the smooth irreducible R-representations V of the group D^1 of elements of D* with reduced norm 1. Such a V occurs in the restriction of a smooth irreducible R-representation V* of D*. When the dimension of V*is >1, following our previous work in the case of SL_2(F), we show that the restriction of V* to D^1 is irreducible or the sum of two irreducible representations. When the characteristic of R is not p, that restriction is the sum of two irreducible equivalent representations if and only if the representation of GL_2(F) image of V* by the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence restricts to SL_2(F) as a sum of four inequivalent irreducible representations (this is never the case if the characteristic of R is not 2).

Representations of $SL_2(F)$

Let $p$ be a prime number, $F $ a non-archimedean local field with residue characteristic $p$, and $R$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $ p$. We thoroughly investigate the irreducible smooth $R$-representations of $SL_2(F)$. The components of an irreducible smooth $R$-representation $Π$ of $GL_2(F)$ restricted to $SL_2(F)$ form an $L$-packet $L(Π)$. We use the classification of such $Π$ to determine the cardinality of $L(Π)$, which is $1,2$ or $4$. When $p=2$ we have to use the Langlands correspondence for $GL_2(F)$. When $\ell$ is a prime number distinct from $p$ and $R=\mathbb Q_\ell^{ac}$, we establish the behaviour of an integral $L$-packet under reduction modulo $\ell$. We prove a Langlands correspondence for $SL_2(F)$, and even an enhanced one when the characteristic of $R$ is not $2$. Finally, pursuing a theme of \cite{HV23}, which studied the case of inner forms of $GL_n(F)$, we show that near identity an irreducible smooth R-representation of $SL_2(F)$ is, up to a finite dimensional representation, isomorphic to a sum of $1,2$ or $4$ representations in an $L$-packet of size $4$ (when $p$ is odd there is only one such $L$-packet).

On generic representations of quasi-split reductive groups over local fields of positive characteristic

Let $F$ be a locally compact non-Archimedean field, and $\bf G$ a connected quasi-split reductive group over $F$. We are interested in complex irreducible smooth generic representations $π$ of ${\bf G}(F)$. When $F$ has positive characteristic, we prove important properties which previously were only available for $F$ of characteristic 0. The first one is the tempered $L$-function conjecture of Shahidi, stating that when $π$ as above is tempered, then the $L$-functions attached to $π$ by the Langlands-Shahidi method have no pole for ${\rm Re}(s)>0$. We also establish the standard module conjecture of Casselman and Shahidi, saying that if $π$ is written as the Langlands quotient of a standard module, then it is in fact the full standard module. Finally, for a split classical group $\bf G$ we prove a useful result on the unramified unitary spectrum of ${\bf G}(F)$.

Reducibility points and characteristic $p$ local fields I- Simple supercuspidal representations of symplectic groups

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field with odd characteristic $p$. Let $N$ be a positive integer and $G=Sp_{2N}(F)$. By work of Lomelí on $γ$-factors of pairs and converse theorems, a generic supercuspidal representation $π$ of $G$ has a transfer to a smooth irreducible representation $Π_π$ of $GL_{2N+1}(F)$. In turn the Weil-Deligne representation $Σ_π$ associated to $Π_π$ by the Langlands correspondence determines a Langlands parameter $ϕ_π$ for $π$. That process produces a Langlands correspondence for generic cuspidal representations of $G$. In this paper we take $π$ to be simple in the sense of Gross and Reeder, and from the explicit construction of $π$ we describe $Π_π$ explicitly. The method we use is the same as in our previous paper arXiv:2310.20455, where we treated the case where $F$ is a $p$-adic field, and $π$ a simple supercuspidal representation of $G=Sp_{2N}(F)$. It relies on a criterion due to Moeglin on the reducibility of representations parabolically induced from $GL_M(F)\times G$ for varying positive integers $M$. We extend this criterion to the case when $F$ has any positive characteristic. The main new feature consists in relating reducibility to $γ$-factors for pairs.

Simple cuspidal representations of symplectic groups: Langlands parameter

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. We compute the Jordan set of a simple cuspidal representation of a symplectic group over $F$, using explicit computations of generators of the Hecke algebras of covers reflecting the parabolic induction under study. When $F$ is a $p$-adic field we obtain the Langlands parameter of the representation.

On Swan exponents of symmetric and exterior square Galois representations

Let $F$ be a local non-Archimedean field and $E$ a finite Galois extension of $F$, with Galois group $G$. If $ρ$ is a representation of $G$ on a complex vector space $V$, we may compose it with any tensor operation $R$ on $V$, and get another representation $R\circρ$. We study the relation between the Swan exponents $\mathrm{Sw}(ρ)$ and $\mathrm{Sw}(R\circρ)$, with a particular attention to the cases where $R$ is symmetric square or exterior square. Indeed those cases intervene in the local Langlands correspondence for split classical groups over $F$, via the formal degree conjecture, and we present some applications of our work to the explicit description of the Langlands parameter of simple cuspidal representations. For irreducible $ρ$ our main results determine $\mathrm{Sw}(\mathrm{Sym}^{2}ρ)$ and $\mathrm{Sw}(\wedge^{2}ρ)$ from $\mathrm{Sw}(ρ)$ when the residue characteristic $p$ of $F$ is odd, and bound them in terms of $\mathrm{Sw}(ρ)$ when $p$ is $2$. In that case where $p$ is $2$ we conjecture stronger bounds, for which we provide evidence.

Types et contragrédientes

Let G be a p-adic reductive group, and R an algebraically closed field. Let us consider a smooth representation of G on an R-vector space V. Fix an open compact subgroup K of G and a smooth irreducible representation of K on a finite-dimensional R-vector space W. The space of K-homomorphisms from W to V is a right module over the intertwining algebra H(G,K,W). We examine how those constructions behave when we pass to the contragredient representations of V and W, and we give conditions under which the behaviour is the same as in the case of complex representations. We take an abstract viewpoint and use only general properties of G. In the last section, we apply this to the theory of types for the group GL(n) and its inner forms over a non-Archimedean local field.

Simple supercuspidal L-packets of symplectic groups over dyadic fields

We consider the symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}$ defined over a $p$-adic field $F$, where $p=2$. We prove that every simple supercuspidal representation (in the sense of Gross--Reeder) of $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(F)$ corresponds to an irreducible $L$-parameter under the local Langlands correspondence for $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}$ established by Arthur.

Representations of a reductive $p$-adic group in characteristic distinct from $p$

We investigate the irreducible cuspidal $C$-representations of a reductive $p$-adic group $G$ over a field $C$ of characteristic different from $p$. When $C$ is algebraically closed, for many groups $G$, a list of cuspidal $C$-types $(J,λ)$ has been produced satisfying exhaustion, sometimes for a restricted kind of cuspidal representations, and often unicity. We verify that those lists verify Aut($C$)-stability and we produce similar lists when $C$ is no longer assumed algebraically closed. Our other main results concern supercuspidality. This notion makes sense for the representations $λ$ in the cuspidal $C$-types $(J,λ)$ as above, which involve finite reductive groups. We check that an irreducible cuspidal representation of $G$ induced from $λ$ is supercuspidal if and only $λ$ is supercuspidal.

Tame multiplicity and conductor for local Galois representations

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field of residual characteristic $p$. Let $σ$ be an irreducible smooth representation of the absolute Weil group $\Cal W_F$ of $F$ and $\sw(σ)$ the Swan exponent of $σ$. Assume $\sw(σ) \ge1$. Let $\Cal I_F$ be the inertia subgroup of $\Cal W_F$ and $\Cal P_F$ the wild inertia subgroup. There is an essentially unique, finite, cyclic group $\varSigma$, of order prime to $p$, so that $σ(\Cal I_F) = σ(\Cal P_F)\varSigma$. In response to a query of Mark Reeder, we show that the multiplicity in $σ$ of any character of $\varSigma$ is bounded by $\sw(σ)$.

Local Langlands correspondence and ramification for Carayol representations

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field of residual characteristic $p$ with Weil group $\Cal W_F$. Let $σ$ be an irreducible smooth complex representation of $\Cal W_F$, realized as the Langlands parameter of an irreducible cuspidal representation $π$ of a general linear group over $F$. In an earlier paper, we showed that the ramification structure of $σ$ is determined by the fine structure of the endo-class $\varTheta$ of the simple character contained in $π$, in the sense of Bushnell-Kutzko. The connection is made via the {\it Herbrand function} $Ψ_\varTheta$ of $\varTheta$. In this paper, we concentrate on the fundamental Carayol case in which $σ$ is totally wildly ramified with Swan exponent not divisible by $p$. We show that, for such $σ$, the associated Herbrand function satisfies a certain symmetry condition or functional equation, a property that essentially characterizes this class of representations. We calculate $Ψ_\varTheta$ explicitly, in terms of a classical Herbrand function coming from the Bushnell-Kutzko classification of simple characters. We describe exactly the class of functions arising as Herbrand functions $Ψ_\varXi$, as $\varXi$ varies over totally wild endo-classes of Carayol type. In a separate argument, we get a complete description of $σ$ restricted to any ramification subgroup. This provides a different, more Galois-centred, view on $Ψ_\varTheta$.

Explicit local Jacquet-Langlands correspondence: the non-dyadic wild case

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field of residual characteristic $p$ with $p\neq 2$. Let $n$ be a power of $p$ and let $G$ be an inner form of the general linear group $\text{\rm GL}_n(F)$. We give a transparent parametrization of the irreducible, totally ramified, cuspidal representations of $G$ of parametric degree $n$. We show that the parametrization is respected by the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence, relative to any other inner form. This expresses the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence for such representations within a single, compact formula.

Jordan blocks of cuspidal representations of symplectic groups

Let $G$ be a symplectic group over a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and odd residual characteristic. Given an irreducible cuspidal representation of G, we determine its Langlands parameter (equivalently, its Jordan blocks in the language of Moeglin) in terms of the local data from which the representation is explicitly constructed, up to a possible unramified twist in each block of the parameter. We deduce a Ramification Theorem for $G$, giving a bijection between the set of endo-parameters for $G$ and the set of restrictions to wild inertia of discrete Langlands parameters for $G$, compatible with the local Langlands correspondence. The main tool consists in analysing the intertwining Hecke algebra of a good cover, in the sense of Bushnell--Kutzko, for parabolic induction from a cuspidal representation of $G\times\mathrm{GL}_n$, seen as a maximal Levi subgroup of a bigger symplectic group, in order to determine its (ir)reducibility; a criterion of Moeglin then relates this to Langlands parameters.

Modulo $p$ representations of reductive $p$-adic groups: functorial properties

Let $F$ be a local field with residue characteristic $p$, let $C$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and let $\mathbf{G}$ be a connected reductive $F$-group. In a previous paper, Florian Herzig and the authors classified irreducible admissible $C$-representations of $G=\mathbf{G}(F)$ in terms of supercuspidal representations of Levi subgroups of $G$. Here, for a parabolic subgroup $P$ of $G$ with Levi subgroup $M$ and an irreducible admissible $C$-representation $τ$ of $M$, we determine the lattice of subrepresentations of $\mathrm{Ind}_P^G τ$ and we show that $\mathrm{Ind}_P^G χτ$ is irreducible for a general unramified character $χ$ of $M$. In the reverse direction, we compute the image by the two adjoints of $\mathrm{Ind}_P^G$ of an irreducible admissible representation $π$ of $G$. On the way, we prove that the right adjoint of $\mathrm{Ind}_P^G $ respects admissibility, hence coincides with Emerton's ordinary part functor $\mathrm{Ord}_{\overline{P}}^G$ on admissible representations.

On pro-$p$-Iwahori invariants of $R$-representations of reductive $p$-adic groups

Let $F$ be locally compact field with residue characteristic $p$, and $\mathbf{G}$ a connected reductive $F$-group. Let $\mathcal{U}$ be a pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup of $G = \mathbf{G}(F)$. Fix a commutative ring $R$. If $π$ is a smooth $R[G]$-representation, the space of invariants $π^{\mathcal{U}}$ is a right module over the Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}$ of $\mathcal{U}$ in $G$. Let $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of $G$ with a Levi decomposition $P = MN$ adapted to $\mathcal{U}$. We complement previous investigation of Ollivier-Vignéras on the relation between taking $\mathcal{U}$-invariants and various functor like $\mathrm{Ind}_P^G$ and right and left adjoints. More precisely the authors' previous work with Herzig introduce representations $I_G(P,σ,Q)$ where $σ$ is a smooth representation of $M$ extending, trivially on $N$, to a larger parabolic subgroup $P(σ)$, and $Q$ is a parabolic subgroup between $P$ and $P(σ)$. Here we relate $I_G(P,σ,Q)^{\mathcal{U}}$ to an analogously defined $\mathcal{H}$-module $I_\mathcal{H}(P,σ^{\mathcal{U}_M},Q)$, where $\mathcal{U}_M = \mathcal{U}\cap M$ and $σ^{\mathcal{U}_M}$ is seen as a module over the Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_M$ of $\mathcal{U}_M$ in $M$. In the reverse direction, if $\mathcal{V}$ is a right $\mathcal{H}_M$-module, we relate $I_\mathcal{H}(P,\mathcal{V},Q)\otimes \textrm{c-Ind}_\mathcal{U}^G\mathbf{1}$ to $I_G(P,\mathcal{V}\otimes_{\mathcal{H}_M}\textrm{c-Ind}_{\mathcal{U}_M}^M\mathbb{1},Q)$. As an application we prove that if $R$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and $π$ is an irreducible admissible representation of $G$, then the contragredient of $π$ is $0$ unless $π$ has finite dimension.

Higher ramification and the local Langlands correspondence

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field. We show that the local Langlands correspondence over $F$ has a strong property generalizing the higher ramification theorem of local class field theory. If $π$ is an irreducible cuspidal representation of a general linear group $GL_n(F)$ and $σ$ the corresponding irreducible representation of the Weil group $W_F$ of $F$, the restriction of $σ$ to a ramification subgroup of $W_F$ is determined by a truncation of the simple character $θ_π$ contained in $π$, and conversely. Numerical aspects of the relation are governed by a Herbrand-like function $Ψ_Θ$ depending on the endo-class $Θ$ of $θ_π$. We give a method for determining $Ψ_Θ$. Consequently, the ramification-theoretic structure of $σ$ can be predicted from the simple character $θ_π$ alone.
