The ABPS conjecture for Bernstein components

At least 10 years old · documented by

Let GG be a reductive pp-adic group, let s=[L,ω]G\mathfrak{s}=[L,\omega]_G be an inertial equivalence class, let TsT_{\mathfrak{s}} be the corresponding complex torus, and let WsW_{\mathfrak{s}} be its finite Weyl group. For t∈Tst\in T_{\mathfrak{s}}, write Ws,tW_{\mathfrak{s},t} for the stabilizer of tt. ABPS conjecture. There exists a family of 2-cocycles

♮t:Ws,t×Ws,t→C×(t∈Ts)\natural_t:W_{\mathfrak{s},t}\times W_{\mathfrak{s},t}\to\mathbb C^\times\qquad(t\in T_{\mathfrak{s}})

and a bijection

Irr⁡(G)s⟷(Ts/ ⁣/Ws)♮\operatorname{Irr}(G)^{\mathfrak{s}}\longleftrightarrow (T_{\mathfrak{s}}/\!/W_{\mathfrak{s}})_{\natural}

that restricts to a bijection between tempered representations and the unitary part of the extended quotient, and is canonical up to permutations within L-packets. This conjecture proposes a geometric description of Bernstein components in terms of their cuspidal supports; its general validity and the precise compatibility with local Langlands remain open.
