What is miraculous about the mirabolic subgroup?

I recently asked this question about Euler subgroups and generalizing the automorphic theory of $\mathrm{GL}_n$ to a more general setting. My question here is more specific. As mentioned there, the ...

Why are there so few irreducible admissible representations of $\text{GL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ (up to infinitesimal equivalence)?

Studying Langlands's classification of irreducible admissible representations, I have been rather stunned by the following: Theorem Up to infinitesimal equivalence, all irreducible admissible ...

Subgroups of $\mathbb{Z}^{n}$ with rotational symmetries

Schmidt (https://projecteuclid.org/euclid.dmj/1077377618) showed that the number of $m$-dimensional subgroups of $\mathbb{Z}^{n}$ of covolume $\leq X$ is $$c_{1}\left(m,n\right)X^{n}+O\left(X^{n-\...

Orbit representatives for the action of the maximal compact subgroup

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field and $O$ be the ring of integers in $F$. Take $G=GL(2,F)$ and $K=GL(2,O)$. Consider the action of $K$ on $G$ by conjugation. Is it possible to explicitly write ...

Exponential analogue of formal connections

Let $F=\mathbb{C}((t))$. Let $G=GL_n$. Then $G(F)$ acts on $\mathfrak{g}(F)$ by gauge transformation: $$ g.x:=gxg^{-1} + \dot{g}g^{-1},\quad \quad g\in G(F), \quad x\in \mathfrak{g}(F). $$ Here, $\...

Rationality of intersection of algebraic groups

Suppose that $G$ (defined over $\mathbb{Q}$) and $H$ (defined over $\mathbb{R}$) are two algebraic subgroups of a larger algebraic group defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. Assume that $G(\mathbb{R})$ and $H(\...
