Intertwining semisimple characters for p-adic classical groups

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let~GG be a unitary group of an~εε-hermitian form~hh given over a nonarchimedean local field~F0F_0 of odd residue characteristic. We introduce a geometric combinatoric condition under which we prove "Intertwining implies Conjugacy" for semisimple characters of~GG and the general linear group of the ambient vector space of~GG. Further we prove a Skolem-Noether result for the action of~GG on its Lie algebra, more precisely two Lie algebra elements of~GG which have the same characteristic polynomial over~FF must be conjugate under an element of~GG if there are corresponding semisimple characters which intertwine over an element of~GG } Let~GG be a unitary group over a nonarchimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. This paper concerns the study of the "wild part" of the irreducible smooth representations of~GG, encoded in a so-called "semisimple character". We prove two fundamental results concerning them, which are crucial steps towards a classification of the cuspidal representations of~GG. First we introduce a geometric combinatoric condition under which we prove an "intertwining implies conjugacy" theorem for semisimple characters, both in~GG and in the ambient general linear group. Second, we prove a Skolem--Noether theorem for the action of~GG on its Lie algebra; more precisely, two semisimple elements of the Lie algebra of~GG which have the same characteristic polynomial must be conjugate under an element of~GG if there are corresponding semisimple strata which are intertwined by an element of~GG.
