<p>Let $G$ be a locally compact group and let $K$ be a compact group. Let $(\tau, V_\tau)$ be an irreducible representation of $K$.</p>
<p>We consider the space of $Endo_K(\tau)$-valued, compactly supported continuous functions
$f$ on $G$<br>
with
$$ f(k_1 g k_2) = \tau(k_1) f(g) \tau(k_2), $$
which is an $*$ algebra under convolution.</p>
<p>What is a good reference for such algebras, especially in the context with reductive group over local fields and the connection to representation theory?</p>

Stembridge, On Schur's Q-functions and the primitive idempotents of a commutative Hecke algebra, J. Algebr. Comb. 1 (1992) 71–95, but I believe this paper considers only finite groups. </p>

<p>You have a nice summary of basic facts <em>with proofs</em> in chapter 4 of Bushnell and Kutzko's book "The admissible dual of ${\rm GL}(N)$ via compact open subgroups" (the chapter is entitled "Interlude with Hecke algebras"). </p>
<p>You may also read the monography "The Langlands conjecture for ${\rm GL}(2)$", written by Bushnell and Henniart. You'll find there a nice introduction to these algebras.</p>
<p>There are many other references. But it depends on what exactly you're interested in.</p>
