Examples to keep in mind while reading the book 'The Admissible Dual...' by Bushnell and Kutzko and the importance of Interwining of representations
I am a beginner in the field of representation theory. I was reading the book 'The Admissible Dual of $GL(N)$ Via Compact Open Subgroups' by Bushnell and Kutzko.
Let me first describe the book a ...

Type of place versus type of unitary group
Let $F$ be a totally real number field, $E$ a totally imaginary quadratic extension over $E$, and $V$ an hermitian $n$-dimensional vector space over $F$. I assume $n=2m$ is even. Let $U$ be a unitary ...

Cartan decomposition for upper triangular matrices
Due to the comments, I have the impression that I have to be more precise.
Consider $G= GL_n(F)$ for a non-Archimedean field $F$ with ring of integers $o$.
Let $K= GL_n(o)$ and let $I$ the Iwahori ...

Cohomology of compact open subgroups of semisimple groups over local fields
Let $E$ be a local field, $\mathcal{O}$ its ring of integers, $k$ its residue field, and $G$ a split semisimple group over $\mathcal{O}$. Let $K$ be an open subgroup of $G(\mathcal{O})$; more ...

Algebraic characters and quasi-characters of reductive algebraic group over non-archimedean local field
Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group over $F$, where $F$ is a non-archimedean local field.
Then $G(F)$ is a p-adic group.
Let $\Psi(G)$ be the lattice of algebraic characters.
Let $\Lambda_G$ be the ...

Why does norm map the $\sigma$-conjugacy classes to the conjugacy classes?
Let $E/F$ be a cyclic extension of order $\ell$ (not assumed prime) of fields of characteristic $0$, and $\Sigma$ its Galois group; we denote by $\sigma$ a generator of $\Sigma$. We denote by $G(E), G(...

Splitting of simply connected algebraic group
Let $k$ be a number field and let $G$ be a connected semisimple, simply connected algebraic group defined over $k$. Let $k'$ be a finite Galois extension over which $G$ splits. By the Chebotarev ...
