AbstractLetR/R be a quadratic extension of finite, commutative, local and principal rings of odd characteristic. Denote byUn(R) the unitary group of ranknassociated toR/R. The Weil representation ofUn(R) is defined and its character is explicitly computed.

We study hermitian forms and unitary groups defined over a local ring, not necessarily commutative, equipped with an involution. When the ring is finite we obtain formulae for the order of the unitary groups as well as their point stabilizers, and use these to compute the degrees of the irreducible constituents of the Weil representation of a unitary group associated to a ramified quadratic extension of a finite local ring.

For the modular variety attached to an arithmetic subgroup of an indefinite unitary group of signature $(1,n+1)$, with $n\geqslant 1$, we study Heegner divisors in the local Picard group over a boundary component of a compactification. For this purpose, we introduce local Borcherds products. We obtain a precise criterion for local Heegner divisors to be torsion elements in the Picard group, and further, as an application, we show that the obstructions to a local Heegner divisor being a torsion element can be described by certain spaces of vector-valued elliptic cusp forms, transforming under a Weil representation.

In this paper, a necessary and sufficient condition is given for a commutative Artinian local ring whose annihilating-ideal graph is a star graph. Also, a complete characterization is established for a finite local ring whose annihilating-ideal graph is a star graph.

Let $R$ be a finite commutative ring of odd characteristic and let $V$ be a free $R$-module of finite rank. We classify symmetric inner products defined on $V$ up to congruence and find the number of such symmetric inner products. Additionally, if $R$ is a finite local ring, the number of congruent symmetric inner products defined on $V$ in each congruence class is determined.

AbstractWe determine the poles of the standard intertwining operators for a maximal parabolic subgroup of the quasi-split unitary group defined by a quadratic extension E/F of p-adic fields of characteristic zero. We study the case where the Levi component M ≃ GLn(E) × Um(F), with n ≡ m (mod 2). This, along with earlier work, determines the poles of the local Rankin-Selberg product L-function L(s, t′ × τ), with t′ an irreducible unitary supercuspidal representation of GLn(E) and τ a generic irreducible unitary supercuspidal representation of Um(F). The results are interpreted using the theory of twisted endoscopy.
