On Representations of GLn(D) admitting a generalized linear period
Abstract
Let D be a quaternion division algebra over a non-Archimedean local field F of characteristic zero, and let Gn=GLn(D). Let H1,n−1={diag(g1,g2)∈G1, g2∈Gn−1} and, for s ∈ ℝ, define χs(diag(g1,g2))=ν(g1)2sν(g2)−2s. We classify, for n=3,4, the irreducible smooth representations of Gn admitting a generalized linear period with respect to (H1,n−1,χs). Motivated by these results, we conjecture a complete classification for all n>2. Assuming this conjecture, we characterize such representations in terms of Langlands parameters: an irreducible smooth representation π of Gn admits such a period if and only if L(π) contains a Weil-Deligne subrepresentation isomorphic to L(ν−2s), the (2n−4)-dimensional parameter of ν−2s on Gn−2, and the four-dimensional quotient is the Langlands parameter of either the trivial representation of G2, with s=±(n−2)/2, or an irreducible infinite-dimensional H1,1-distinguished representation of G2. We also verify the Lapid-Prasad conjecture in this setting: the L-packet of an irreducible representation of Gn admitting a linear period with respect to H1,n−1 is invariant under ρ↦ρ̃θ.

AB - Let D be a quaternion division algebra over a non-Archimedean local field F of characteristic zero, and let G_n=GL_n(D). Let H_1,n−1={diag(g_1,g_2)∈G_1, g_2∈G_n−1} and, for s ∈ ℝ, define χ_s(diag(g_1,g_2))=ν(g_1)^2sν(g_2)^−2s. We classify, for n=3,4, the irreducible smooth representations of G_n admitting a generalized linear period with respect to (H_1,n−1,χ_s). Motivated by these results, we conjecture a complete classification for all n>2. Assuming this conjecture, we characterize such representations in terms of Langlands parameters: an irreducible smooth representation π of G_n admits such a period if and only if L(π) contains a Weil-Deligne subrepresentation isomorphic to L(ν^−2s), the (2n−4)-dimensional parameter of ν^−2s on G_n−2, and the four-dimensional quotient is the Langlands parameter of either the trivial representation of G_2, with s=±(n−2)/2, or an irreducible infinite-dimensional H_1,1-distinguished representation of G_2. We also verify the Lapid-Prasad conjecture in this setting: the L-packet of an irreducible representation of G_n admitting a linear period with respect to H_1,n−1 is invariant under ρ↦ρ̃^θ.
