With a linear representation, how does the continuity of $G \to \mathrm{GL}(V)$ relate to that of $G \times V \to V$?

I'm currently reading Traces of Hecke Operators by Knightly and Li, while simultaneously revisiting the adelic/representation-theoretic point of view on automorphic forms. In Knightly and Li, they ...

Galois representation absolutely irreducible after restricting to open subgroup of finite index

Let $E$ and $F$ be finite extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. Let $\phi:\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{E}/E)\to GL_n(F)$ be an absolutely irreducible continuous representation. Assume that the restriction of $\phi$ ...

Conjugacy in metaplectic groups

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field (characteristic 0) and $G=GL(2,F)$. Let $\tilde{G}$ be "the" metaplectic double cover of $G$ (defined using an explicit cocycle as in Gelbart's book (Weil's ...

When does a continuous function's "Fourier series" converge pointwise almost everywhere to the function?

Let $G$ be a compact topological group. By the Peter-Weyl theorem, the complex Hilbert space $L^2(G)$ is the Hilbert space direct sum of the spaces of matrix coefficients of all the irreducible ...
