Tate cohomology of unipotent cuspidal representations of finite groups of Lie type
Abstract
Let p be a prime and k be an algebraic closure of the finite field with p elements. Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over k, and let F:Gβ G be a Frobenius morphism, defining an π½q-rational structure on G, where q is a power of p. Let β be a prime different from p and ββ 2. Let Ξ be an β-adic cuspidal unipotent representation of GFβ such that Ξ β Ξ Ο, where Ο is a generator the Galois group Gal(π½qβ/π½q). In this paper, we prove the irreducibility of the zeroth Tate cohomology group HΜ0(Ο,β) and vanishing of the first Tate cohomology group HΜ1(Ο,β) for any GFβrtimesGal(π½qβ/π½q)-stable lattice β in Ξ , using the multiplicity-one property of a progenerator constructed via the generalized Gelfand-Graev representations and Harish-Chandra induction.

Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over k, and let F:Gβ G be a Frobenius morphism, defining an π½_q-rational structure on G, where q is a power of p. Let β be a prime different from p and ββ 2. Let Ξ be an β-adic cuspidal unipotent representation of G^F^β such that Ξ β Ξ ^Ο, where Ο is a generator the Galois group Gal(π½_q^β/π½_q). In this paper, we prove the irreducibility of the zeroth Tate cohomology group HΜ^0(Ο,β) and vanishing of the first Tate cohomology group HΜ^1(Ο,β) for any G^F^βrtimesGal(π½_q^β/π½_q)-stable lattice β in Ξ , using the multiplicity-one property of a progenerator constructed via the generalized Gelfand-Graev representations and Harish-Chandra induction.
