Intertwining Operators for Siegel Parabolics over Finite Fields

We consider degenerate principal series representations $\operatorname{Ind}_P^G\chi$ over finite fields, where $G$ is a classical subgroup of $\operatorname{GL}_{2n}$, and $P$ is the Siegel parabolic subgroup. For example, we show that this representation is always multiplicity-free and irreducible for generic characters $\chi$. We then discuss a particular intertwining operator $I$ on $\operatorname{Ind}_P^G\chi$ and its related combinatorics. Firstly, this operator $I$ produces families of diagonalizable antitriangular matrices with well-behaved eigenvalues. Secondly, applying $I$ to a special vector in $\operatorname{Ind}_P^G\chi$ leads us to various matrix Gauss sums, whose evaluations imply an explicit equidistribution result of the trace and determinant of symmetric and alternating invertible matrices.

Exponents of Jacobians of Graphs and Regular Matroids

Let $G$ be a finite undirected multigraph with no self-loops. The Jacobian $\operatorname{Jac}(G)$ is a finite abelian group associated with $G$ whose cardinality is equal to the number of spanning trees of $G$. There are only a finite number of biconnected graphs $G$ such that the exponent of $\operatorname{Jac}(G)$ equals $2$ or $3$. The definition of a Jacobian can also be extended to regular matroids as a generalization of graphs. We prove that there are finitely many connected regular matroids $M$ such that $\operatorname{Jac}(M)$ has exponent $2$ and characterize all such matroids.

On Characteristics of Hyperfields Obtained as Quotients of Finite Fields

Hyperstructures are a natural extension of regular algebraic structures in which one of the operations, known as the hyperoperation, is multivalued; a hyperfield is such an extension on a field. M. Krasner (1962) proved that the quotient $\mathbb{F}_p/G$, where $G$ is a subgroup of units in $\mathbb{F}_p$ is a hyperfield. The characteristic of a field may be explicitly determined from the order of the field, but there are no existing generalizations for determining the characteristic of a hyperfield of the form $\mathbb{F}_p/G$. We show that for odd primes $p$, there exists an explicit form for the characteristic of the hyperfield $\mathbb{F}_p/G$ and $|G|=1,2,3,4$. Finally, we prove a general form of the characteristic for hyperfields where $|G|$ is prime.
