Inductive structure of Shalika germs and affine Springer fibers

This article has two parallel perspectives: to demonstrate an inductive structure of Shalika germs, and to show an analogous inductive structure for affine Springer fibers. More precisely, we give an algorithm to compute arbitrary Shalika germs (resp. affine Springer fibers up to stratification) in terms of three ingredients: Shalika germs (resp. affine Springer fibers) for twisted Levi subgroups, a finite list of combinatorial objects, and the numbers of rational points on varieties over the residue field (resp. varieties themselves) among an explicit finite list of such. We also discuss some formal applications of the algorithm to Shalika germs and orbital integrals.
