Extensions of the Deligne-Kazhdan philosophy and applications
Abstract:
Deligne and Kazhdan used the notion of close local fields
to establish a way of analyzing representations of Galois groups and
Algebraic groups over fields of characteristic p, using information
about corresponding representations in characteristic 0. I will first
explain this theory and some related results. Then I will state our
results on the extension of Kazhdan's and Howe's work on Hecke Algebra
isomorphims. I will also explain how this extension has enabled us to
generalize Lemaire's work on generic representations of Gln(F) over close local fields.
