Harish-Chandra induction and restriction functors play a key role in the representation theory of reductive groups over finite fields. In this paper, extending earlier work of Dat, we introduce and study generalisations of these functors which apply to a wide range of finite and profinite groups, typical examples being compact open subgroups of reductive groups over non-archimedean local fields. We prove that these generalisations are compatible with two of the tools commonly used to study the (smooth, complex) representations of such groups, namely Clifford theory and the orbit method. As a test case, we examine in detail the induction and restriction of representations from and to the Siegel Levi subgroup of the symplectic group $\text{Sp}_{4}$ over a finite local principal ideal ring of length two. We obtain in this case a Mackey-type formula for the composition of these induction and restriction functors which is a perfect analogue of the well-known formula for the composition of Harish-Chandra functors. In a different direction, we study representations of the Iwahori subgroup $I_{n}$ of $\text{GL}_{n}(F)$, where $F$ is a non-archimedean local field. We establish a bijection between the set of irreducible representations of $I_{n}$ and tuples of primitive irreducible representations of smaller Iwahori subgroups, where primitivity is defined by the vanishing of suitable restriction functors.

Let $\widetilde{\text{Sp}}(2n)$ be the metaplectic covering of $\text{Sp}(2n)$ over a local field of characteristic zero. The core of the theory of endoscopy for $\widetilde{\text{Sp}}(2n)$ is the geometric transfer of orbital integrals to its elliptic endoscopic groups. The dual of this map, called the spectral transfer, is expected to yield endoscopic character relations which should reveal the internal structure of $L$-packets. As a first step, we characterize the image of the collective geometric transfer in the non-archimedean case, then reduce the spectral transfer to the case of cuspidal test functions by using a simple stable trace formula. In the archimedean case, we establish the character relations and determine the spectral transfer factors by rephrasing the works by Adams and Renard.

Let G be a p-adic reductive group and let U0 be the unipotent radical of a minimal parabolic subgroup of G. We introduce a Fourier transform defined on the space of smooth Whittaker functions on G which are compactly supported modulo U0. We determine its image. The proof follows the proof of Heiermann for the functions on the group.

During the proof, we establish an inversion formula. This formula allows us to prove that an irreducible smooth representation of G, which has a Whittaker model in the space of smooth Whittaker functions on G which are compactly supported modulo U0, is cuspidal.

This work gave us the opportunity to prepare a framework for the study of harmonic analysis on p-adic reductive symmetric spaces: B-matrices and constant term; a study of wave packets.

Soit p un nombre premier et F un corps local non archimédien de caractéristique p. Dans cet article, à une représentation lisse irréductible de GL2(F) sur avec caractère central, nous associons un diagramme qui détermine la représentation de départ à isomorphisme près. Nous le déterminons également dans certains cas.

The admissible representations of a real reductive group G are known by work of Langlands, Knapp, Zuckerman and Vogan. This paper describes an effective algorithm for computing the irreducible representations of G with regular integral infinitesimal character. The algorithm also describes structure theory of G, including the orbits of K(ℂ) (a complexified maximal compact subgroup) on the flag variety. This algorithm has been implemented on a computer by the second author, as part of the ‘Atlas of Lie Groups and Representations’ project.

The description of irreducible representations of a group G can be seen as a problem in harmonic analysis; namely, decomposing a suitable space of functions on G into irreducibles for the action of G×G by left and right multiplication. For a split p-adic reductive group G over a local non-archimedean field, unramified irreducible smooth representations are in bijection with semisimple conjugacy classes in the ‘Langlands dual’ group. We generalize this description to an arbitrary spherical variety X of G as follows. Irreducible unramified quotients of the space are in natural ‘almost bijection’ with a number of copies of AX*/WX, the quotient of a complex torus by the ‘little Weyl group’ of X. This leads to a description of the Hecke module of unramified vectors (a weak analog of geometric results of Gaitsgory and Nadler), and an understanding of the phenomenon that representations ‘distinguished’ by certain subgroups are functorial lifts. In the course of the proof, rationality properties of spherical varieties are examined and a new interpretation is given for the action, defined by Knop, of the Weyl group on the set of Borel orbits.

Soit $\mathrm{F}$ un corps commutatif localement compact non archimédien, et soit $\mathrm{D}$ une algèbre à division de centre $\mathrm{F}$. Nous prouvons que toute représentation irréductible supercuspidale du groupe $\mathrm{GL}_m(\mathrm{D})$, de niveau non nul, est l'induite compacte d'une représentation d'un sous-groupe ouvert compact modulo le centre de $\mathrm{GL}_m(\mathrm{D})$. Plus précisément, nous prouvons que de telles représentations contiennent un type simple maximal au sens de Bushnell et Kutzko.

Let $\mathrm{F}$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field and let $\mathrm{D}$ be a central $\mathrm{F}$-division algebra. We prove that any positive level supercuspidal irreducible representation of the group $\mathrm{GL}_m(\mathrm{D})$ is compactly induced from a representation of a compact mod centre open subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}_m(\mathrm{D})$. More precisely, we prove that such representations contain a maximal simple type in the sense of Bushnell and Kutzko.

In this paper we study the category of non-degenerate modules over the Harish-Chandra Schwartz algebra of a p-adic connected reductive group. We construct functors of parabolic induction and restriction and show that they are exact and both ways adjoint to each other.

For a finite extension $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$ we construct and study a class of locally analytic representations of GL$_2(F)$ and related groups such as the quaternion algebra over $F$. The construction is based on inducing a locally analytic character of a maximal torus. We show that for a generic character the resulting representation is topologically irreducible, and not isomorphic to a locally analytic principal series, when the torus is non-split.
