In this paper, we extend to non-connected, reductive groups over p-adic field of characteristic zero Harish-Chandra's theorem on the local integrability of characters.Harish-Chandra's theorem states that the distribution character of an admissible, irreducible representation of a (connected) reductive p-adic group is locally integrable. We show that this extends to any reductive group; just as in the connected case, one even gets a very precise control over the singularities of the character along the singular elements.As will be seen, the proof in the non-connected case is an easy extension of Harish-Chandra's. The reader may wonder why we have bothered to write its generalization completely. The reason is that the original article [8] does not contain proofs for the crucial lemmas, and this makes it impossible to explain why the theorem extends. Because this result is needed for work of Arthur and the author on base change, it has been thought necessary to give complete arguments.

Let H be the Levi subgroup of a parabolic subgroup of a split reductive group G. In characteristic zero, an irreducible representation V of G decomposes when restricted to H into a sum V = ⊕mαWα where the Wα’s are distinct irreducible representations of H. We will give a formula for the multiplicities mα. When H is the maximal torus, this formula is Weyl’s character formula. In theory one may deduce the general formula from Weyl’s result but I do not know how to do this.

The purpose of the present note is to introduce some notions useful for applications of the trace formula to the study of the principle of functoriality, including base change, and to the study of zeta-functions of Shimura varieties. In order to avoid disconcerting technical digressions I shall work with reductive groups over fields of characteristic zero, but the second assumption is only a matter of convenience, for the problems caused by inseparability are not serious.The difficulties with which the trace formula confronts us are manifold. Most of them arise from the non-compactness of the quotient and will not concern us here. Others are primarily arithmetic and occur even when the quotient is compact. To see how they arise, we consider a typical problem.

Abstract Let ${\text G}$ be a reductive group over a $p$-adic field $F$ of characteristic zero, with $p \gg 0$, and let $G={\text G}(F)$. In [ 15], J.-L. Kim studied an equivalence relation called weak associativity on the set of unrefined minimal $K$-types for ${\text G}$ in the sense of A. Moy and G. Prasad. Following [ 15], we attach to the set $\overline{\mathfrak{s}}$ of good $K$-types in a weak associate class of positive-depth unrefined minimal $K$-types a ${G}$-invariant open and closed subset $\mathfrak{g}_{\overline{\mathfrak{s}}}$ of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g} = {\operatorname{Lie}}({\text G})(F)$, and a subset $\tilde{{G}}_{\overline{\mathfrak{s}}}$ of the admissible dual $\tilde{{G}}$ of ${G}$ consisting of those representations containing an unrefined minimal $K$-type that belongs to $\overline{\mathfrak{s}}$. Then $\tilde{{G}}_{\overline{\mathfrak{s}}}$ is the union of finitely many Bernstein components of ${G}$, so that we can consider the Bernstein projector $E_{\overline{\mathfrak{s}}}$ that it determines. We show that $E_{\overline{\mathfrak{s}}}$ vanishes outside the Moy–Prasad ${G}$-domain ${G}_r \subset{G}$, and reformulate a result of Kim as saying that the restriction of $E_{\overline{\mathfrak{s}}}$ to ${G}_r\,$, pushed forward via the logarithm to the Moy–Prasad ${G}$-domain $\mathfrak{g}_r \subset \mathfrak{g}$, agrees on $\mathfrak{g}_r$ with the inverse Fourier transform of the characteristic function of $\mathfrak{g}_{\overline{\mathfrak{s}}}$. This is a variant of one of the descriptions given by R. Bezrukavnikov, D. Kazhdan, and Y. Varshavsky in [8] for the depth-$r$ Bernstein projector.

This chapter deals with central extensions and groups locally of minimal type. It begins with a discussion of the general lemma on the behavior of the scheme-theoretic center with respect to the formation of central quotient maps between pseudo-reductive groups; this lemma generalizes a familiar fact in the connected reductive case. The chapter then considers four phenomena that go beyond the quadratic case, along with a pseudo-reductive group of minimal type that is locally of minimal type. It shows that the pseudo-split absolutely pseudo-simple k-groups of minimal type with a non-reduced root system are classified over any imperfect field of characteristic 2. In this classification there is no effect if the “minimal type” hypothesis is relaxed to “locally of minimal type.”

Let G be a finite group of order g, andbe an absolutely irreducible representation of degree fμ over a field of characteristic zero. As is well known, by using Schur's lemma (1), we can prove the following orthogonality relations for the coefficients :1It is easy to conclude from (1) the following orthogonality relations for characters:whereand is 1 or 0 according as t and s are conjugate in G or not, and n(t) is the order of the normalize of t.

This paper examines Euler characteristics and characteristic classes in the motivic setting. We establish a motivic version of the Becker–Gottlieb transfer, generalizing a construction of Hoyois. Making calculations of the Euler characteristic of the scheme of maximal tori in a reductive group, we prove a generalized splitting principle for the reduction from $\operatorname{GL}_{n}$ or $\operatorname{SL}_{n}$ to the normalizer of a maximal torus (in characteristic zero). Ananyevskiy’s splitting principle reduces questions about characteristic classes of vector bundles in $\operatorname{SL}$-oriented, $\unicode[STIX]{x1D702}$-invertible theories to the case of rank two bundles. We refine the torus-normalizer splitting principle for $\operatorname{SL}_{2}$ to help compute the characteristic classes in Witt cohomology of symmetric powers of a rank two bundle, and then generalize this to develop a general calculus of characteristic classes with values in Witt cohomology.

AbstractLet G be a complex reductive group, and G^ its set of irreducible admissible representations. The Bruhat order on G^ is defined in a natural way. We prove that this Bruhat order is preserved by transfer. This gives new proofs of some results by the author on L-functions.

Let E/F be an unramified cyclic extension of local non-archimedean fields, G a connected reductive group over F, K(F) (resp. K(E)) a hyper-special maximal compact subgroup of G(F) (resp. G(E)), and H(F) (resp. H(E)) the Hecke convolution algebra of compactly-supported complex-valued K(F) (resp. G(E))-biinvariant functions on G(F) (resp. G(E)). Then the theory of the Satake transform defines (see § 2) a natural homomorphism H(E) → H(F), θ→f. There is a norm map N from the set of stable twisted conjugacy classes in G(E) to the set of stable conjugacy classes in G(F); it is an injection (see [Ko]). Let Ω‱(x, f) denote the stable orbital integral of f in H(F) at the class x, and Ω‱(y, θ) the stable twisted orbital integral of θ in H(E) at the class y.

AbstractJ. Arthur put the trace formula in invariant form for all connected reductive groups and certain disconnected ones. However his work was written so as to apply to the general disconnected case, modulo two missing ingredients. This paper supplies one of those missing ingredients, namely an argument in Galois cohomology of a kind first used by D. Kazhdan in the connected case.

Let G be a reductive group over a field of characteristic zero. Fix a Borel subgroup B of G which contains a maximal torus T. For each dominant weight X we have an irreducible representation V(X) of G with highest weight X. For two dominant representation X1 and X2 we have a decompositionThis decomposition is determined by the elementof the group ring of the group of characters of T.The objective of this paper is to compute r(X1, X2) for all pairs X1 and X2 of fundamental weights. This will be used to compute the equations for cones over homogeneous spaces. This problem immediately reduces to the case when G has simple type; An, Bn, Cn, Dn, E6, E7, E8, F4 and G2. We will give complete details for the classical types. For the case An we will work with GLn.
