D. Thesis", "categories": [ "math.RT" ], "abstract": "Representation theory of $p$-adic groups naturally comes in the study of automorphic forms and one way to understand representations of a group is by restricting to its nice subgroups. D. Prasad studied the restriction for pairs $({\\rm GL}_{2}(E), {\\rm GL}_{2}(F))$ and $({\\rm GL}_{2}(E), D_{F}^{\\times})$ where $E/F$ is a quadratic equation and $D_{F}$ is the unique quaternion division algebra, and $D_{F}^{\\times} \\hookrightarrow {\\rm GL}_{2}(E)$. Prasad proved a multiplicity one result and a `dichotomy' relating the restriction for the pairs $({\\rm GL}_{2}(E), {\\rm GL}_{2}(F))$ and $({\\rm GL}_{2}(E), D_{F}^{\\times})$ involving the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence. We study a restriction problem involving covering groups. In an analogy to the case of Prasad, we consider pairs $(\\widetilde{{\\rm GL}_{2}(E)}, {\\rm GL}_{2}(F))$ and $(\\widetilde{{\\rm GL}_{2}(E)}, D_{F}^{\\times})$ where $\\widetilde{{\\rm GL}_{2}(E)}$ is the $\\mathbb{C}^{\\times}$-metaplectic covering of ${\\rm GL}_{2}(E)$. We do not have multiplicity one in this case but there is an analogue of dichotomy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-06-20T22:07:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22E35", "22E50", "11F70", "11S37" ], "keywords": [ "metaplectic cover", "branching laws", "unique quaternion division algebra", "automorphic forms", "multiplicity" ], "tags": [ "dissertation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1406.5548P" } } }
