An analogue of ladder representations for classical groups (2209.15163v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a notion of ladder representations for split odd special orthogonal groups and symplectic groups over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero. This is a natural class in the admissible dual which contains both strongly positive discrete series representations and irreducible representations with irreducible A-parameters. We compute Jacquet modules and the Aubert duals of ladder representations, and we establish a formula to describing ladder representations in terms of linear combinations of standard modules.
