Can any pair of associate parabolics be related by opposite parabolics?
Let $G$ be a reductive group, say over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
We have the following definitions for a pair of parabolic subgroups $P_1$ and $P_2$ with Levi quotients $...

What's the point of a Whittaker model?
Let $G$ be a quasi-split connected reductive group over a $p$-adic field $F$. Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup which is defined over $F$, with $B = TU$, $T$ defined over $F$. The choice of $T$ and $B$ ...

What is the archimedean Hecke algebra?
Let $\mathbf G$ be a connected, reductive group over $\mathbb Q$. For each nonarchimedean place $v$, let $K_v$ be a maximal compact subgroup of $\mathbf G(\mathbb Q_v)$. The space $\mathscr H(\mathbf ...

Making sense out of intertwining operators defined by a vector valued integral
Let $G$ be the rational points of a connected, reductive group over a $p$-adic field $F$. Let $S$ be a maximal split torus of $G$ with $\Delta$ a set of simple roots corresponding to a minimal ...

Definition of discrete spectrum and continuous and basic properties
I apologize if this is too basic for MO.
I have an embarrassing admission to make: I don't know the actual definition of the discrete/continuous spectrum of a reductive group $G/\mathbb{Q}$ (in the ...

Definition of Admissible Representation
Let $G$ be a connected, reductive group over a number field $k$. Let $v$ be a place of $k$.
If $v$ is finite, an admissible representation of $G(k_v)$ is defined to be an abstract representation of $...

Dimension of space of K-fixed vectors
If $G$ is an unramified group over an $p$-adic field $F$, the Satake isomorphism identifies the spherical Hecke algebra with respect to a special maximal compact subgroup $K$. In particular,
(1) $H(G(...

Continuity of the conductor of automorphic representations
I am interested in properties of (semi-)continuity of the conductor of automorphic representation. Let $F$ be a number field.
The meta question is, given a function on the unitary dual of $PGL(2, F)$ ...

How to translate the representation theory of semisimple to reductive groups?
I am aware of the following question: Definitions of Reductive and Semisimple Groups
So let me phrase a precise question:
Is there a standard technique by which one can translate the unitary/...
