In this paper we develop a theory of newforms for $U(1,1)(F)$, building on previous work on $SL_2(F)$. This theory is analogous to the results of Casselman for $GL_2(F)$ and Jacquet, Piatetski-Shapiro, and Shalika for $GL_n(F)$. To a representation $\\pi$ of $U(1,1)(F)$, we attach an integer $c(\\pi)$ called the conductor of $\\pi$, which depends only on the $L$-packet $\\Pi$ containing $\\pi$. A newform is a vector in $\\pi$ which is essentially fixed by a congruence subgroup of level $c(\\pi)$. We show that our newforms are always test vectors for some standard Whittaker functionals, and, in doing so, we give various explicit formulae for newforms.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-03-05T08:44:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "non-archimedean local field", "standard whittaker functionals", "explicit formulae", "congruence subgroup", "test vectors" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......3090L" } } }
