Some Applications of Gelfand Pairs to Number Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
The classical theory of Gelfand pairs has found a wide range of applications, ranging from harmonic analysis on Riemannian symmetric spaces to coding theory. Here we discuss a generalization of this theory, due to Gelfand-Kazhdan, and Bernstein, which was developed to study the representation theory of p-adic groups. We also present some recent number-theoretic results, on local e-factors and on the central critical values of automorphic L-functions, which fit nicely into this framework.

Gelfand Pairs, Representation Theory of the Symmetric Group, and the Theory of Spherical Functions
This thesis gives an introduction to the study of Gelfand pairs and their applications. We begin with a brief introduction to the notion of a Gelfand pair and then move to some of the foundational results concerning Gelfand pairs. Next, we explore specific examples of Gelfand pairs, developing tools of independent interest as we progress. We find that consideration of a specific example of a Ge...
متن کاملGelfand-Kazhdan criterion
Proofs that endomorphism (convolution) algebras are commutative most often depend upon identifying an anti-involution to interchange the order of factors, but which nevertheless acts as the identity on the algebra or suitable subalgebras. Silberger gave such an argument for the spherical Hecke algebras of p-adic reductive groups, for example. Apparently the first occurrence of the Gelfand-Kazhd...

متن کاملMultiplicity-free theorems of the Restrictions of Unitary Highest Weight Modules with respect to Reductive Symmetric Pairs
The complex analytic methods have found a wide range of applications in the study of multiplicity-free representations. This article discusses, in particular, its applications to the question of restricting highest weight modules with respect to reductive symmetric pairs. We present a number of multiplicity-free branching theorems that include the multiplicity-free property of some of known res...
