In this case, supercuspidal representations of PGL(2,F) are parameterized by characters of elliptic tori. Taking a cue from real groups, we propose that supercuspidal representations are naturally parameterized by characters of covers of tori. Over the reals, Harish-Chandra defined the discrete series representations by specifying their characters restricted to an elliptic torus, and these characters may naturally be expressed in terms of characters of a cover of the torus. We write down a natural analogue of Harish-Chandra's character for PGL(2,F), and show that it is the character of a unique supercuspidal representation, on a canonical subset of the elliptic torus. This paves the way for a realization of the local Langlands correspondence for PGL(2,F) that eliminates the need for any character twists.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-10-11T15:21:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11S37", "22E50" ], "keywords": [ "local langlands correspondence", "realization", "elliptic torus", "discrete series representations", "odd residual characteristic" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 30, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1210.3268A" } } }
