Weil representations of $U(n,n)(\mathbb{F}_{q^2}/\mathbb{F}_q)$, $q>3$ odd via presentation and compatibility of methods

Abstract: In this article we construct Weil representations of quasi-split unitary groups $U(n,n)(\mathbb{F}{q^2}/\mathbb{F}_q)$ associated to quadratic extensions of finite fields. We define these representations by using an adequate presentation Bruhat like of those groups. More precisely, we define Weil representations of $U(n,n)(\mathbb{F}{q^2}/\mathbb{F}_q)$ associating to each generator a linear map of a suitable $\mathbb{C}$-vector space satisfying the relations of the aforementioned presentation. In addition, we also address the natural question on the compatibility of our representation of $U(n,n)(\mathbb{F}_{q^2}/\mathbb{F}_q)$ with the classical one constructed by G\'erardin.
