Topic
Extensions of the Deligne-Kazhdan philosophy and applications
Speakers

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.
