Stable vectors in Moy-Prasad filtrations

Let k be a finite extension of Q_p, let G be an absolutely simple split reductive group over k, and let K be a maximal unramified extension of k. To each point in the Bruhat-Tits building of G_K, Moy and Prasad have attached a filtration of G(K) by bounded subgroups. In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the dual of the first Moy-Prasad filtration quotient to contain stable vectors for the action of the reductive quotient. Our work extends earlier results by Reeder and Yu, who gave a classification in the case when p is sufficiently large. By passing to a finite unramified extension of k if necessary, we obtain new supercuspidal representations of G(k).

p-adic q-expansion principles on unitary Shimura varieties

We formulate and prove certain vanishing theorems for p-adic automorphic forms on unitary groups of arbitrary signature. The p-adic q-expansion principle for p-adic modular forms on the Igusa tower says that if the coefficients of (sufficiently many of) the q-expansions of a p-adic modular form f are zero, then f vanishes everywhere on the Igusa tower. There is no p-adic q-expansion principle for unitary groups of arbitrary signature in the literature. By replacing q-expansions with Serre-Tate expansions (expansions in terms of Serre-Tate deformation coordinates) and replacing modular forms with automorphic forms on unitary groups of arbitrary signature, we prove an analogue of the p-adic q-expansion principle. More precisely, we show that if the coefficients of (sufficiently many of) the Serre-Tate expansions of a p-adic automorphic form f on the Igusa tower (over a unitary Shimura variety) are zero, then f vanishes identically on the Igusa tower. This paper also contains a substantial expository component. In particular, the expository component serves as a complement to Hida's extensive work on p-adic automorphic forms.

Reflection subgroups of odd-angled Coxeter groups

We give a criterion for a finitely generated odd-angled Coxeter group to have a proper finite index subgroup generated by reflections. The answer is given in terms of the least prime divisors of the exponents of the Coxeter relations.
