This leads to some examples of various types of endoscopic lifting from automorphic forms for U_1 x U_1 x U_1 and U_1 x U_2, and to an example of a non-endoscopic form of weight (3,3) corresponding to a family of 3-dimensional irreducible l-adic Galois representations. I also compute the 2-adic slopes of some automorphic forms with level structure at 2, giving evidence for the local constancy of the slopes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2008-11-03T17:08:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F55" ], "keywords": [ "automorphic forms", "definite unitary groups", "explicit calculations", "irreducible l-adic galois representations", "non-endoscopic form" ], "tags": [ "dissertation", "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0801.3176L" } } }
