Nov 21, 2016 at 8:55 comment added David Benjamin Lim @libofmath For dimension 1, try to understand the following statement. There is a continuous bijection between finite index Hecke characters $I_K \to \Bbb{C}^\times$ and continuous representations $G_K \to \Bbb{C}^\times$ where $I_K$ is the idele class group. The bijection essentially follows from existence and properties of the Global Artin map.
Nov 21, 2016 at 8:12 comment added znt In particular one might note that if $E$ is an elliptic curve over $Q$ and $\pi$ is the corresponding automorphic representation, then Langlands' most general conjecture would predict the existence of a 2-dimensional complex representation of a group that we can't define attached to $\pi$; the image (appropriately normalised) would I believe land in $U(2)$, and $Frob_\ell$ would be sent to a complex 2x2 matrix with char poly $X^2-a_\ell/\ell X+1$; Sato-Tate is that these Frobenii are equidistributed in the image. Nothing to do with the Tate module at all and still open (because no defn of gp).
Nov 21, 2016 at 8:07 comment added libofmath @znt Thank you for the clarification. I knew that there should be more to Frankel's comment.
Nov 21, 2016 at 7:58 comment added znt As for class field theory, the answer is yes: Dirichlet characters give auto reps of GL_1, this is a good exercise (but you'll need to know the proper adelic definition of an auto rep so p-adics, adeles, relationship to class groups etc).
Nov 21, 2016 at 7:58 comment added libofmath @NoahSchweber I will erase the mse question for now. I understand that I should have waited, but I'm in a situation where I might not be able to use the internet in a few days. Thank you for the suggestion.
Nov 21, 2016 at 7:55 comment added znt There is a subtlety, often glossed over in introductory expositions. There are several correspondences, all conjectural. There's a correspondence between $\pi$'s "of Artin type" and $\sigma$ as in your question (complex Galois reps). There's another one between "algebraic" $\pi$'s and motives (e.g. elliptic curves), via $p$-adic Galois representations, and a third between all $\pi$'s and complex representations of the global Langlands group (which doesn't yet exist). Strictly speaking the answer to your second question is no, because $\sigma$ coming from etale cohomology isn't a complex rep.
Nov 21, 2016 at 7:49 comment added Noah Schweber The mse question is here. To the OP, I would in general wait more than a day before pushing up to MO (disclaimer - this isn't my field, I can't tell whether this question is appropriate for MO or not, so I'm just saying this as a matter of general practice).
