Title: Construction of supercuspidal representations

Location: Hilbert Seminar Room (MS 337)

Time: Thursday, April 5, 14:00--15:00

Abstract: Given a supercuspidal representation of GL_2 over a p-adic field or the group U_2 of 2-by-2 unitary matrices relative to a quadratic p-adic field extension, we explain how to use the internal structure of its Langlands parameter to construct a underlying type of this representation. (If time permits, we will also cover a construction of discrete series representations.)
