An analogue of the BGG resolution for locally analytic principal series
Owen T. R. Jones
Abstract
Let G be a connected reductive quasisplit algebraic group over a field L which is a finite extension of the p-adic numbers. We construct an exact sequence modelled on (the dual of) the BGG resolution involving locally analytic principal series representations for G(L). This leads to an exact sequence involving spaces of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms for certain groups compact modulo centre at infinity.
1 Introduction
Locally analytic representation theory is the study of a certain class of representations of L-analytic groups over K, where L is a finite extension of Qp and K is a spherically complete extension of L. It was systematically developed by Schneider and Teitelbaum in papers such as [17], [19], [20] and [21]. It plays an important role in the p-adic local Langlands correspondence for GL2(Qp).
It also has applications to overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms. For connected reductive groups which are compact modulo centre at infinity, spaces of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms are defined by Loeffler in [14] in terms of functions from a certain set to a locally analytic principal series representation for an Iwahori subgroup.
Let G be the group of L-points of a connected reductive linear quasisplit algebraic group defined over L, B and B opposite Borels in G, G1 a subgroup of G admitting an Iwahori factorisation, such as an Iwahori subgroup, and B1=B∩G1. In this paper we study maps between locally analytic principal series IndB1G1(μ) for G1, where Ind denotes locally analytic induction over K, which we assume is complete with respect to a discrete valuation. Our approach is to exploit an isomorphism between IndBG(μ)(N), the subspace of functions in IndBG(μ) with support in BN, where N is the unipotent radical of B, and Ccla(N,Kμ), the space of locally analytic functions N→Kμ with compact support. Using the dense subspace Cclp(N,Kμ)⊆Ccla(N,Kμ), which we call the space of locally polynomial functions, we prove the following theorem.
Theorem 26.
We have an exact sequence of M-representations
[TABLE]
coming from the BGG resolution for V∗.
Here V is the irreducible finite-dimensional algebraic representation of G with highest weight λ, sm-Ind is smooth induction, 1 is the trivial character, W(i) denotes the elements of the Weyl group of length i, w0 is the longest element of the Weyl group and w⋅λ=w(λ+ρ)−ρ where ρ is half the sum of the positive roots.
By taking G1 to be an Iwahori subgroup, we can use Theorem 26 to construct the analogous exact sequence for locally analytic principal series IndBG(μ) for G, which has been established by quite different methods in [16]. Another consequence of Theorem 26 is the following exact sequence between spaces M(e,Kμ) of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms of weight μ for a group compact modulo centre at infinity whose group of L-points is G.
Theorem 35.
If λ∈X(T) is a dominant integral arithmetical character then we have an exact sequence
[TABLE]
Here M(e,Kλ)cl denotes the so-called classical subspace. After the first inclusion, the maps in this exact sequence are constructed from maps of the form θα,w⋅λaut:M(e,Kw⋅λ)→M(e,Ksαw⋅λ), where w∈W and α∈Φ+ satisfy l(sαw)=l(w)+1. These are the analogue of the maps θk−1 from [6] between the spaces of overconvergent p-adic modular forms of weight 2−k and k. In [6], Coleman used θk−1 to prove a sufficient condition for classicality in terms of small slope. Using Theorem 35 we can establish a necessary and sufficient condition for belonging to the classical subspace.
1.1 The structure of the paper
In §2 we define certain subspaces of locally analytic principal series in which we will be interested. In §3 we establish results about representations of a split semisimple Lie algebra, including the exactness of a certain duality functor. In §4 we use maps between Verma modules to construct maps between particular subspaces of locally analytic principal series. We use the BGG resolution to construct a sequence of U(g)-modules involving these subspaces, for G semisimple in §5 and for G reductive in §6. We then show that the first three terms of this sequence are exact in §7. In §8 we build on this to prove Theorem 26, and deduce the exactness of the original sequence. We prove the analogue of Theorem 26 involving locally analytic principal series for G rather than a subgroup with an Iwahori factorisation in §9. In §10 we turn our attention to analytic principal series and prove that the first three terms of the exact sequence in Theorem 26 remain exact when we restrict to analytic principal series.
Finally, we give some applications of our results to overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms for groups compact modulo centre at infinity. In §11 we briefly sketch the definition of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms given by Chenevier in [5] and prove a three-term exact sequence involving certain spaces of overconvergent automorphic forms. This material is contained in [5], citing an earlier version of this paper, but is included here for completeness. In §12 we briefly outline the definition of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms given by Loeffler in [14] and prove Theorem 35.
1.2 Notation
Fix a prime p. Let L be a finite extension of Qp and let K be an extension of L which is complete with respect to a discrete valuation (by Lemma 1.6 in [18] this means it is spherically complete).
Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group defined over L which is quasi-split over L and split over K. Choose a Borel subgroup B which is defined over L. Write N for its unipotent radical (which is defined over L). Choose a maximal L-split torus in B and let T be its centraliser in G. Then T is a Levi factor in B and a maximal torus in G which is defined over L. It is not necessarily split over L, but by assumption it splits over K. Let B denote the opposite Borel to B containing T and N its unipotent radical.
We write G for G(L). We use bold letters to denote algebraic subgroups of G. For any algebraic subgroup J of G defined over L we write J to denote J(L) and the lower case gothic letter j to represent the corresponding Lie subalgebra of g=Lie(G). The sole exception is that we will denote the Lie algebra of T by h, which is the standard notation in Lie algebra representation theory. Given a Lie algebra a we write U(a) for the universal enveloping algebra of a. Representations of a are equivalent to U(a)-modules, and we use the two terms interchangeably. We write S:U(a)→U(a) for the principal anti-automorphism of U(a), given on monomials by X1⋯Xr↦(−1)rXr⋯X1. This is the unique algebra anti-automorphism of U(a) extending a→a, X↦−X.
Let Φ denote the set of all roots of G, Φ+⊆Φ the set of positive roots determined by our choice of B and Δ⊆Φ+ the corresponding set of simple roots. Set Φ−={−α:α∈Φ+}. For each α∈Φ+ let Hα∈h denote its coroot and fix a non-zero element Eα∈gα. This determines a unique Fα∈g−α such that [Eα,Fα]=Hα.
Let X(T)=Hom(T,Gm), with the group law written additively. Let h∗ be the space of Lie algebra homomorphisms from h to K. Any μ∈X(T) gives an element in h∗ by evaluating at K-points, restricting to T and then differentiating at the origin. We denote this element again by μ. We are only interested in elements of h∗ coming from X(T).
Let W denote the Weyl group of G, W(i) the subset of elements of length i under the Bruhat ordering given by our choice of positive roots and w0 the longest element of W. Let ρ be half the sum of the positive roots. There is a natural action of W on X(T), and we define the affine action of w∈W on μ∈X(T) by w⋅μ=w(μ+ρ)−ρ. We define the affine action of W on h∗ similarly.
Let λ∈X(T) be a dominant weight and let σ:G→GLs be the irreducible finite-dimensional representation of G with highest weight λ . As T is split over K, σ is defined over K. Let V denote Ks with the action of G given by σ:G→GLs(K).
Suppose X is a paracompact locally L-analytic manifold and U a K-vector space. We write Cla(X,U) for the space of locally L-analytic functions from X to K, and Csm(X,U) for the subspace of all smooth (i.e. locally constant) functions. The subspaces of compactly supported functions are denoted Ccla(X,U) and Ccsm(X,U) respectively. If Ω is an open and closed subset of X then we write 1Ω∈Csm(X,K) for the indicator function of Ω. For any f∈Cla(X,U) we write f∣Ω for f1Ω. If Y is an open subset of X, Y is a rigid analytic space defined over L and φ:Y→Y(L) is locally analytic isomorphism which is compatible with all the charts of X then we write Can(Y,K) for the subspace of Cla(Y,K) consisting of functions f:Y→K such that f∘φ−1 comes from a holomorphic function on Y(L). We say f∈Cla(X,K) is analytic on Y if f∣Y∈Can(Y,K).
2 Subspaces of IndBG(ν)
Now we recall some definitions and propositions from [8], Emerton’s forthcoming paper on the relation of his Jacquet module functor to parabolic induction, which contains a longer exposition of all the material in this section. For simplicity we often give definitions only in the cases we need them, rather than the more general versions found in [8]. All representations will be vector spaces over K, even if this is not explicitly mentioned.
Definition 1**.**
Let U be a barrelled, Hausdorff, locally convex K-vector space with an action of a locally L-analytic group J by continuous K-linear automorphisms. We say U is a locally analytic representation of J if for every u∈U the orbit map J→U,j↦ju is in Cla(J,U).
If U is a locally analytic representation of H then we can differentiate the action of J to get an action of j, or equivalently of its enveloping algebra U(j), as explained in Remark 2.5 in [11].
If ν is a locally analytic character T→GL1(K) then let Kν denote the corresponding one-dimensional representation of T. As every b∈B can be written uniquely as nt with n∈N and t∈T, we define the locally analytic parabolic induction to be
[TABLE]
with the right regular action of G: g′f(g)=f(gg′). This is a locally analytic representation of G, as explained in Proposition 2.1.1 of [8].
The support of any f∈IndBG(ν) is an open and closed subset of G which is invariant under multiplication on the left by B. Its image in B\G is therefore open and compact. We refer to this as the support of f, Suppf. If Ω is any open subset of B\G we let IndBG(ν)(Ω) denote the subspace of elements whose support is contained in Ω.
Since N∩B={e}, the natural map N→B\G given by n↦Bn is an open immersion. We use this map to regard N as an open subset of B\G. By Lemma 2.3.6 of [8], this open immersion induces a topological isomorphism
[TABLE]
We extend the right translation action of N on Ccla(N,Kν) to a locally analytic action of B by letting t∈T act on f∈Ccla(N,Kν) as follows:
[TABLE]
On the other hand the action of B on IndBG(ν) preserves IndBG(ν)(N) as BNB=BN, so we have an action of B on IndBG(ν)(N). These actions make (1) B-equivariant.
As IndBG(ν) is a locally analytic representation of G it also has an action of g. If X∈g and f∈IndBG(ν) is [math] on some open neighbourhood of g∈G then Xf is also [math] on this neighbourhood. Hence the action of g preserves IndBG(ν)(N), whence we get an action of g on IndBG(ν)(N). Restricting it to b gives the same action as differentiating the B-action, so IndBG(ν)(N) is a (g,B)-representation. We use (1) to transfer this action of g to Ccla(N,Kν).
We now identify various subspaces of Ccla(N,Kν), which by (1) correspond to subspaces of IndBG(ν)(N).
Define Cpol(N,K), the ring of algebraic K-valued functions on N, to be the set of all functions N→K which come from global sections of the structure sheaf of N over K. We give Cpol(N,K) its finest locally convex topology, so the natural injection into Cla(N,K) is continuous. We let N act by the right regular representation. We extend this to an action of B by tf(n)=f(t−1nt). This makes Cpol(N,K) an algebraic representation, in the sense that we may write it as a union of an increasing series of finite dimensional B-invariant subspaces, on each of which B acts through an algebraic representation of B. Each of these representations is a fortiori a locally analytic representation of B, so we can differentiate them to get actions of b. These all agree, so we get an action of b on Cpol(N,K). In fact because we have given Cpol(N,K) its finest locally convex topology the action of B makes it a locally analytic representation, as explained after Lemma 2.5.3 in [8], which gives us another way of constructing this action of b.
We let B act on Kν via B→B/N≅T. We define the space of polynomial functions on N with coefficients in Kν to be Cpol(N,Kν)=Cpol(N,K)⊗KKν, equipped with the inductive, or equivalently projective, tensor product topology (cf. §17 of [18]). This has an action of B by taking the tensor product of the actions on the two factors. Since both of these actions are locally analytic the action on Cpol(N,Kν) is locally analytic, so we have an action of b. We now explain how to extend this to an action of g.
We write nk for {E1⋯Ek:Ei∈n for all 1≤i≤k}⊆U(n). For any U(n)-module M we define Mn∞ to be the subspace of all x∈M such that nkx={0} for some positive integer k. We let Aν denote the one-dimensional K-representation of B on which T acts as ν and B acts via B→B/N≅T. From the discussion following Lemma 2.5.3 in [8] the map
[TABLE]
is an isomorphism of U(n)-modules, where the action of n on HomK(U(n),Aν) is given by Xϕ(u)=ϕ(uX) for all X∈n, ϕ∈HomK(U(n),Kν) and u∈U(n). By the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem there is an isomorphism of U(n)-modules HomK(U(n),Aν)n∞⟶∼HomU(b)(U(g),Aν)n∞ where U(g) is a U(b)-module by the multiplication on the left and has an action of n by multiplication on the right. Combining these we get an isomorphism of U(n)-modules
[TABLE]
We give HomU(b)(U(g),Aν)n∞ an action of g by Xϕ(u)=ϕ(uX) for all X∈g, ϕ∈HomU(b)(U(g),Aν)n∞ and u∈U(g). This map is then b-equivariant. We use it to extend the action of b on Cpol(N,Kν) to an action of g. By Lemma 2.5.8 in [8] this action is continuous and Cpol(N,Kν) is a (g,B)-representation.
We define
[TABLE]
with the inductive tensor product topology (this coincides with the projective tensor product topology in this case, by Proposition 1.1.31 of [9]), where “lp” is short for “locally polynomial”. We let g and B act on both factors, where Ccsm(N,K) has the trivial action of g. By Lemma 2.5.22 in [8] this action of B is locally analytic. These actions make Cclp(N,Kν) a continuous (g,B)-representation, i.e. the maps g×Cclp(N,Kν)→Cclp(N,Kν) and B×Cclp(N,Kν)→Cclp(N,Kν) are both continuous.
Multiplication of algebraic functions by smooth functions gives a map
[TABLE]
which is a continuous, (g,B)-equivariant injection by Lemma 2.5.24 in [8]. We can think of its image as those locally analytic functions from N to Kν which are locally given by polynomials.
Now suppose that X is an open subset of N, X is a rigid analytic affinoid ball defined over L and φ:X→X(L) is a locally analytic isomorphism compatible with all charts of N. Then the image of the map
[TABLE]
is dense in Can(X,Kν). It follows that the image of Cclp(N,Kν) in Ccla(N,Kν) is also dense.
3 Lie algebra representations
For this section only we change the notation. We work with a semisimple Lie algebra g over K (instead of L) with a split Cartan subalgebra h (i.e. for all X∈h the eigenvalues of adX are in K) and Borel subalgebra b⊇h with nilpotent radical n. Write b for the opposite Borel subalgebra to b.
Let U(g)-Mod denote the category of U(g)-modules with morphisms given by linear maps which commute with the U(g)-actions. Let C denote the full subcategory of U(g)-Mod given by those modules M on which h acts diagonalisably and the weight spaces are finite dimensional. It is easily checked that this is an abelian category.
Given M∈C, the action of U(g) on the dual representation M∗ is given by uϕ(m)=ϕ(S(u)m) for ϕ∈M∗,u∈U(g) and m∈M. If λ is a weight of M then we have an injection i:(Mλ)∗→M∗ by extending ϕ∈(Mλ)∗ by [math] on all the other weight spaces Mμ, and i((Mλ)∗)⊆(M∗)−λ. Moreover, for any ϕ∈(M∗)−λ, ϕ(Mμ)=0 unless λ=μ, so we have equality: i((Mλ)∗)=(M∗)−λ.
Since M=⨁λ∈h∗Mλ we get that M∗≅∏λ∈h∗(Mλ)∗≅∏λ∈h∗(M∗)λ. We define M∨ to be
[TABLE]
Note that the action of h preserves (M∗)λ and if ϕ∈(M∗)λ and X∈gα then Xϕ∈(M∗)λ−α. It follows that M∨ is a U(g)-submodule of M∗.
Clearly h acts diagonalisably on M∨. Since (M∗)λ≅(M−λ)∗ the weight spaces are finite dimensional. Hence M∨∈C.
Lemma 2**.**
The contravariant functor F:C→C given by M→M∨ is an anti-equivalence of categories. In particular it is exact.
Proof.
First F is a functor as any ϕ:M→M′ restricts to a map Mλ→Mλ′ for any λ∈h∗, and it is contravariant as M→M∗ is. Now consider (M∨)∨⊆M∗∗. It is a direct sum of its weight spaces and the λ weight space is ((M∨)−λ)∗, which is (Mλ)∗∗, precisely the image of Mλ under the canonical embedding M→M∗∗. Thus M∨∨ is isomorphic to M.
By a standard result in category theory F is an anti-equivalence of categories if and only if F is fully faithful and essentially surjective. This follows from the fact that F2(M)≅M for any M∈C.
∎
Definition 3**.**
Let M be a U(g)-module and let a be a Lie subalgebra of g. We say a acts locally finitely on x∈M if x is contained in some finite dimensional U(a)-submodule of M. We define the a-finite part of M to be the subset of all elements of M on which a acts locally finitely. This is a U(a)-submodule of M.
Definition 4**.**
We define the category O to be the full subcategory of U(g)-Mod consisting of finitely generated modules on which n acts locally finitely and h acts diagonalisably.
Note that O is closed under finite direct sums, submodules and quotients, and it contain all finite dimensional U(g)-modules. It is more usual to work with the category O, defined as in the above definition but with n instead of n. For more background see [13].
Lemma 5**.**
The category O is a subcategory of C.
Proof.
Suppose M∈O. We know h acts diagonalisably on M so we just have to show that the weight spaces are finite dimensional.
Let X⊆M be a finite set which generates M as a U(g)-module. As h acts diagonalisably on M we have M=⨁λ∈h∗Mλ, so we can write each x∈X as a sum of finitely many elements of weight spaces. Replacing each x∈X with the elements thus obtained, we may assume each x∈X is a weight vector. As n acts locally finitely on M, U(n)x is finite dimensional for each x∈X. It is also a U(h)-module, so we may pick a basis of weight vectors for it. Replacing each x∈X by this basis we have a finite set X of weight vectors in M which generates M as a U(n)-module.
Choose an ordering {α1,⋯,αr} for Φ+. Then {Eα1,⋯,Eαr} is a basis for n, so by the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem {Eα1n1⋯Eαrnr:ni≥0∀i} is a basis for U(n). It follows that the set {Eα1n1⋯Eαrnrx:ni≥0,x∈X} spans M as a vector space over K. If x∈X has weight λx then Eα1n1⋯Eαrnrx has weight λx+∑niαi. For each weight μ∈h∗ and x∈X, μ−λx can only be written as a sum of positive roots in a finite number of ways, so the weight space Mμ is finite dimensional.
∎
Recall that nk⊆U(n) denotes {E1⋯Ek:Ei∈n for all 1≤i≤k} and Mn∞ denotes all elements of M which are annihilated by nk for some k.
Lemma 6**.**
If M∈O then M∨=(M∗)n∞.
Proof.
For any U(n)-module M let nkM denote the smallest subspace of M containing E1⋯Ekv for any E1,⋯,Ek∈n and v∈M. Let U(n)nk denote the smallest subspace of U(n) containing uE1⋯Ek for any E1,⋯,Ek∈n and u∈U(n) (so nkU(n)=U(n)nk). If we pick an ordering {α1,⋯,αr} of Φ+ then {Eα1n1⋯Eαrnr:nj≥0} is a basis for U(n). As U(n)nk contains {Eα1n1⋯Eαrnr:∑nj≥k} it has finite codimension in U(n).
Let X be a finite set of weight vectors which generates M as a U(n)-module, as constructed in the proof of Lemma 5. If x∈X has weight λx then Eαm1⋯Eαmkx has weight λx+∑αmi for any αm1,⋯,αmk∈Φ (i.e. the order is not important), so for any weight λ we can find k∈N such that (nkM)λ=0.
Let ϕ∈M∨=⨁λ∈h∗(M∗)λ. Say ϕ=∑ϕλ where ϕλ∈(M∗)λ for each λ and the sum is over a finite set Λ. Then we can find k∈N such that (nkM)−λ=0 for all λ∈Λ, i.e. ϕ∣nkM=0. Then nkϕ(M)=ϕ(nkM)=0, so ϕ∈(M∗)n∞. Hence M∨⊆(M∗)n∞.
Now suppose ϕ∈(M∗)n∞. Choose k such that nkϕ=0. Then U(n)nkx⊆kerϕ for all x∈X. The action of h preserves ∑x∈XU(n)nkx⊆M, so it splits up into weight spaces. If we can show that the number of λ such that Mλ⊈∑x∈XU(n)nkx is finite then ϕ can only be non-zero on finitely many Mλ, and hence ϕ∈⨁λ∈h∗(M∗)λ. This would prove that (M∗)n∞⊆M∨.
If we have y∈Mλ then as M=∑x∈XU(n)x we can write y=∑uxx with each ux∈U(n). As each x∈X is a weight vector, h acts diagonalisably on U(n)x, so U(n)x=⨁μ∈h∗(U(n)x)μ. We may thus replace each uxx with its component in (U(n)x)λ and still get y=∑uxx with each uxx of weight λ. Thus we need to show that for each x∈X there are only finitely many λ such that (U(n)x)λ⊈U(n)nkx. This follows from the fact that U(n)nk has finite codimension in U(n).
∎
4 From maps between Verma modules to maps between the spaces Ccla(N,Kν)
For ν∈h∗ let Aν be the one-dimensional K-vector space with the action of U(b) given by extending ν to b by letting n act trivially. For ν∈X(T) this is consistent with our earlier definition. We define
[TABLE]
where U(g) is a U(b) module by multiplication on the right. This is a Verma module for the Borel subalgebra b (it is more standard to use b). It is a lowest weight module, with lowest weight −ν. It is in O, and hence in C by Lemma 5.
Suppose λ and μ are in X(T) and fix a morphism ψ:Mb(μ)→Mb(λ). Applying the functor
F:C→C, M→M∨ from
Lemma 2 we get a map ψ∨:Mb(λ)∨→Mb(μ)∨ of U(g)-modules.
By Proposition 5.5.4 of [7], since Mb(ν)=U(g)⊗U(b)Aν∗ we have that (Mb(ν))∗≅HomU(b)(U(g),Aν∗∗), where we make U(g) a U(b)-module by the left regular representation and the action of U(g) on HomU(b)(U(g),Aν∗∗) is by multiplication on the right on the source, i.e. uϕ(u′)=ϕ(u′u) for all u,u′∈U(g) and ϕ∈HomU(b)(U(g),Aν∗∗). As Aν is finite dimensional we have a natural isomorphism Aν∗∗≅Aν, so
[TABLE]
Let ν∈X(T). In §2 we defined an action of g on Cpol(N,Kν) by declaring the isomorphism of U(n)-modules Cpol(N,Kν)≅HomU(b)(U(g),Aν)n∞ to be an isomorphism of U(g)-modules. Combining this with Lemma 6 we get an isomorphism of U(g)-modules
[TABLE]
by composing Mb(ν)∨≅(Mb(ν)∗)n∞≅HomU(b)(U(g),Aν)n∞≅Cpol(N,Kν).
We define ψpol:Cpol(N,Kλ)→Cpol(N,Kμ), by ψpol=ζμ−1∘ψ∨∘ζw⋅λ. This is a morphism of U(g)-modules. Recall that Cclp(N,Kν)=Cpol(N,Kν)⊗KCcsm(N,K). We define ψlp:Cclp(N,Kλ)⟶Cclp(N,Kμ) on simple tensors by
[TABLE]
and extend K-linearly. This is g-equivariant, as g acts trivially on Ccsm(N,K). We spend the remainder of this section proving that ψlp extends to a unique g-equivariant function ψla:Ccla(N,Kλ)→Ccla(N,Kμ).
By the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem, there is a unique uψ∈U(n) such that ψ(1⊗1)=uψ⊗1. Since Mb(μ)=U(g)⊗U(b)Kμ is generated as a U(g)-module by the single element 1⊗1, uψ determines ψ by the formula ψ(u⊗1)=u(ψ(1⊗1))=uuψ⊗1.
Since ζν−1:Cpol(N,Kν)≅Mb(ν)∨ sends f to the map u⊗1↦S(u)f(e), for any f∈Cpol(N,Kλ) we have
[TABLE]
for all u∈U(g). Moreover, the fact that ζμ is an isomorphism implies that any f′∈Cpol(N,Kμ) is determined by knowing S(u)f′(e) for all u∈U(g), so (2) uniquely determines ψpol(f).
Let us examine the U(g)-action on Clp(N,Kλ). By Lemma 2.5.24 of [8], the natural map Cclp(N,Kλ)→Ccla(N,Kλ) given by multiplication of polynomial functions by smooth functions is a U(g)-equivariant injection. The U(g)-action on Ccla(N,Kλ) is given by the isomorphism Ccla(N,Kλ)→IndBG(λ)(N). The U(g)-action on IndBG(λ)(N) comes from differentiating the right regular action of G on Cla(G,K).
But there is also the left regular action of G on Cla(G,K), which we denote with a subscript L. Recall that to make this a left action rather than a right action we define it as
[TABLE]
We can also differentiate the left regular action of G to get an action of g, which we call the L action to distinguish it from our original action of g. Since the left and right regular actions of G on Cla(G,K) commute, the L action of g commutes with the right regular action of G.
For any g∈G and f∈Cla(G,K) we have
[TABLE]
so for any X∈g we have XLf(e)=(−X)f(e), and hence uLf(e)=S(u)f(e) for any u∈U(g). It follows that for u∈U(g) and f∈Cla(G,K) we have
We now establish some properties of the L action of U(g). Let Ω⊆G be closed and open, f∈Cla(G,K) and u∈U(g). Recall that f∣Ω=f1Ω.
Lemma 7**.**
We have uL(f∣Ω)=(uLf)∣Ω.
Proof.
For any X∈g, XL(f1Ω)=(XLf)1Ω+f(XL1Ω), by the Leibniz rule. But XL1Ω=0 as 1Ω is smooth, so XL(f1Ω)=(XLf)1Ω. It follows that uL(f1Ω)=(uLf)1Ω for all u∈U(g), and hence that uL(f∣Ω)=(uLf)∣Ω.
∎
Corollary 8**.**
If g=uLf then Suppg⊆Suppf, and we can find f′∈Cla(G,K) such that uLf′=g and Suppg=Suppf′.
Proof.
Since f=f∣Suppf we have that g=uLf=uL(f∣Suppf)=(uLf)∣Suppf=g∣Suppf, whence it follows that Suppg⊆Suppf.
Set f′=f∣Suppg, so by construction Suppf′=Suppg. Then uLf′=uL(f∣Suppg)=(uLf)∣Suppg=g∣Suppg=g.
∎
Suppose further that Ω is locally analytically isomorphic to the L-points of a rigid analytic space in a way which is compatible with all charts of G.
Lemma 9**.**
If f is analytic on Ω then (uLf) is also analytic on Ω.
Proof.
The L action of U(g) on Cla(G,K), and hence on Can(Ω,K), is via differential operators, which preserve analytic functions.
∎
Now we are in a position to define ψla.
Theorem 10**.**
There is a unique continuous U(g)-module homomorphism ψla:Ccla(N,Kλ)→Ccla(N,Kμ) extending ψlp.
Proof.
Uniqueness is immediate by the density of Cclp(N,Kλ) in Ccla(N,Kλ).
Let f1∈Cpol(N,Kλ) and f2∈Ccsm(N,K). We identify Cclp(N,Kν) with its image in Ccla(N,Kν) and we define
[TABLE]
to be the continuous, U(g)-equivariant inclusion obtained by composing the isomorphism Ccla(N,Kν)≅IndBG(ν)(N) with the inclusion IndBG(ν)(N)⊆Cla(G,K)(BN). This means that Φν(f1⊗f2) is defined on BN by bn↦ν(b)f1(n)f2(n) and is [math] outside of BN. In particular, Φν(f1⊗f2)(e)=f1(e)f2(e).
Let us examine F=(uψ)LΦλ(f1⊗f2)−Φμ(ψlp(f1⊗f2)). By (2), (3) and the U(g)-equivariance of Φμ, for all u∈U(g) we have
[TABLE]
We’ve just shown that uF(e)=0 for all u∈U(g), and hence that the image of F under all point distributions at e is [math]. It follows that F must be identically 0 in some neighbourhood of e.
Let X be a chart of N containing e and set f2=1X. Then F∈Cla(G,K) has SuppF⊆BX by Lemma 8, and it is analytic on BX by Lemma 9. Hence it is [math] on BX, and we have shown that F=0.
Let Y⊆N be any compact, open subset, and choose a chart X⊆N containing e such that Y⊆X. By the above argument we know that Φμ(ψlp(f1⊗1X))=(uψ)LΦλ(f1⊗1X). Then, using Lemma 7 and the fact that Φμ(g∣Y)=Φμ(g)∣BY, we have that
[TABLE]
By linearity it follows that Φμ(ψlp(g))=(uψ)LΦλ(g) for all g∈Cclp(N,Kλ). In particular this implies that
[TABLE]
All the maps involved are continuous, Cclp(N,Kλ) is dense in Ccla(N,Kλ) and IndBG(μ)(N) is a closed subspace of Cla(G,K)(BN) so it follows that (uψ)LΦλ(Ccla(N,Kλ))⊆IndBG(μ)(N).
Since Φμ:Ccla(N,Kμ)→IndBG(μ)(N) is an isomorphism we can define
[TABLE]
This is continuous and g-equivariant as all the maps involved in its definition are. As Φμ(ψlp(f))=(uψ)LΦλ(f) for all f∈Cclp(N,Kλ), this extends ψlp.
∎
Lemma 11**.**
Let f∈Ccla(N,Kλ).
If Ω⊆N is open and closed then ψla(f∣Ω)=ψla(f)∣Ω.
2. 2.
Suppψla(f)⊆Suppf.
3. 3.
f′=f∣Suppψla(f)* satisfies ψla(f′)=ψla(f) and Suppf′=Suppψla(f).*
4. 4.
If f is analytic on X⊆N then so is ψla(f).
5. 5.
For all n∈N, ψla(nf)=nψla(f).
Proof.
Parts 1-4 follow immediately from Lemmas 7, 8 and 9. Since the L action of g and the right regular action of G on Cla(G,K) commute, part 5 follows from the fact that Φν(nf)=nΦν(f).
∎
Remark**.**
In fact all U(g)-equivariant maps Ccla(N,Kλ)→Ccla(N,Kμ) are of the form ψla for some ψ:Mb(μ)→Mb(λ), although we will not use this fact.
5 A BGG-type resolution
In this section we assume that G is semisimple. When using results from §3 we work with the semisimple Lie algebra gK=Lie(G(K)), Cartan subalgebra hK=Lie(T(K)) (which is split because T is maximal and split over K) and Borel subalgebra bK=Lie(B(K)). Since representations of g over K are exactly the same thing as representations of g⊗LK=gK over K we will implicitly equate the two.
As V∗ is a finite dimensional irreducible algebraic representation of G, and hence of U(g), over K, with lowest weight −λ, the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand resolution of V∗ with respect to b is the exact sequence of U(g)-modules
[TABLE]
The BGG resolution was first constructed in [1] for a semisimple Lie algebra g over C. A more recent treatment is given in [13]. As indicated at the beginning of §0.1 of [13], C is normally taken to be the field for convenience, but all that is required is that the field K has characteristic 0 and h is a split Cartan subalgebra over K. It can be checked that the proof of the BGG resolution given in [13] holds in this case.
With the exception of Mb(λ)→V∗, the maps in (4) are of the form
[TABLE]
where θα,w⋅λ denotes a non-zero map Mb(sαw⋅λ)→Mb(w⋅λ).
This is an exact sequence in C, so we can apply the contravariant exact functor F:C→C,M↦M∨ from Lemma 2 to get the following exact sequence in C:
[TABLE]
Using the isomorphisms ζw⋅λ:Mb(w⋅λ)∨∼Cpol(N,Kw⋅λ) we rewrite (5) as
[TABLE]
This is an exact sequence in U(g)-Mod. Recall that Cclp(N,Kν) is defined to be Cpol(N,Kν)⊗KCcsm(N,K). We tensor (6) over K with Ccsm(N,K), which is considered as an object in U(g)-Mod by letting g act trivially on it. This preserves exactness, as any module over a field is flat and exactness is a property only of the underlying sequence of vector spaces. Thus we get the exact sequence of U(g)-modules:
[TABLE]
With the exception of V⊗KCcsm(N,K)→Cclp(N,Kλ), the maps in (7) are of the form
[TABLE]
Using the same formulae with θα,sαw′⋅λlp replaced with θα,sαw′⋅λla we get the following sequence of U(g)-modules:
[TABLE]
We will prove that this sequence is exact in Corollary 25.
6 Reductive groups
Now let G be reductive and let G′ denote the derived subgroup of G, which is defined over L by the first Corollary in §2.3 of [2]. Note that G′ is semisimple and T′=T∩G′ is a maximal torus in G′ and split over K. We therefore have the sequence (8) for G′, and since N=N∩G′ this almost gives us sequence (8) for G. The problem is that we only know that the maps are equivariant for the action g′=Lie(G′).
Let Z denote the center of G. It is defined over L by 12.1.7(b) of [22]. Write Z for Z(L) and z for the corresponding Lie subalgebra of g. Since G=G′Z we have G=G′Z, whence it follows that g=g′+z. Since Z centralises T the Weyl groups for G′ and G are canonically isomorphic. Applying the results of the last section to G′ we get the required sequence of maps of U(g′)-modules. It only remains to show that the maps are morphisms of U(g)-modules, and to do this we need only check that the maps are equivariant for the action of z.
The action of T on a highest weight vector v of V is via λ. Since V is an irreducible representation of G, the set {gv:g∈G} spans V (over K). Since Z is contained in the centre of G the action of Z on gv is via λ, as zgv=gzv=λ(z)gv. Hence Z acts on all of V via λ. Since Ccsm(N,K) has the trivial action of g, the action of z on V⊗KCcsm(N,K) is via λ.
Let us now consider the action of Z on Ccla(N,Kw⋅λ). For z∈Z, x∈N and f∈Ccla(N,Kw⋅λ) we have
[TABLE]
So Z acts through w⋅λ:T→K×, and hence z acts through w⋅λ:h→K.
The action of W on X(T) comes from the conjugation action of NG(T) on T, which is trivial on Z⊆T. Hence λ∣Z=(w⋅λ)∣Z for all w∈W, and thus all the maps in the sequence are z-equivariant.
∎
7 Exactness of the First Three Terms
Fix μ∈X(T). We will now construct a basis for Cpol(N,Kμ) which diagonalises the action of h.
Theorem 13**.**
We can find T1,⋯,Tr∈Cpol(N,Kμ) such that Cpol(N,Kμ)≅K[T1,⋯,Tr] and T1m1⋯Trmr is a weight vector of weight μ−∑miαi.
Proof.
Recall we have an isomorphism of U(g)-modules ζμ:Mb(μ)∨→Cpol(N,Kμ). Fix an ordering α1,⋯,αr of Φ+ and write Ei for Eαi. By the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem {E1n1⋯Ernr⊗1:ni≥0 for all i} is a basis for Mb(μ). Let {εm1,⋯,mr:mi≥0 for all i} be the dual basis for Mb(μ)∨, defined by
[TABLE]
Since E1n1⋯Ernr⊗1 has weight −μ+∑niαi, it follows that εm1,⋯,mr has weight μ−∑miαi. (Recall that X∈g acts on ϕ∈Mb(μ)∨ via Xϕ(u⊗1)=ϕ(−Xu⊗1) for all u⊗1∈Mb(μ).)
We define Ti∈Cpol(N,Kμ) by Ti=ζμ(ε0,⋯,0,1,0,⋯,0), where the 1 is in the ith place. Using Lemmas 14 and 15 which follow this proof we see that ζμ(εm1,⋯,mr)=T1m1⋯Trmr/m1!⋯mr!, so Cpol(N,Kμ)=K[T1,⋯,Tr], and T1m1⋯Trmr has weight μ−∑miαi since ζμ is U(g)-equivariant.
∎
Remark**.**
If μ=w⋅λ and αr∈Δ such that l(sαrw)=l(w)+1 then θαr,w⋅λla is a non-zero scalar multiple of (∂Tr∂)w⋅λ(Hα)+1.
Here are the two lemmas about ζμ which were used in the proof.
The Leibniz rule says that for any X,Y∈U(n) and f,g∈Cpol(N,Kμ) we have (XYfg)(e)=(XYf)(e)g(e)+(Xf)(e)(Yg)(e)+(Yf)(e)(Xg)(e)+f(e)(XYg)(e).
By repeated applications of this rule we may conclude that S(Ernr⋯E1n1)(ζμ(εm1,0,⋯,0)ζμ(ε0,m2,0,⋯,0)⋯ζμ(ε0,⋯,0,mr))(e)=0 unless mi=ni for all i, in which case it equals 1. This is the defining characteristic of ζμ(εm1,⋯,mr).
∎
Lemma 15**.**
For all m≥1 we have ζμ(ε0,⋯,m,⋯,0)=m!1ζμ(ε0,⋯,1,⋯,0)m, where all the indices are [math] except the ith.
Proof.
We proceed by induction on m. For m=1 the result is trivial. Suppose it is true for m−1. By the same argument as in Lemma 14 we have that S(Ernr⋯E1n1)(ζμ(ε0,⋯,1,⋯,0)ζμ(ε0,⋯,m−1,⋯,0))(e)=0 unless ni=m and nj=0 for all j=i, in which case it is
[TABLE]
which is m. Hence
[TABLE]
Let B denote the rigid analytic closed unit ball defined over L. Let X be a compact, open subset of N such that there is a locally analytic isomorphism X≅B(L) which is compatible with all charts of N. We write Cpol(X,Kμ) for the subspace of Cla(X,Kμ) given by restricting functions in Cpol(N,Kμ) to X. Then Cpol(X,Kμ)⊂Can(X,Kμ) and it inherits the subspace norm coming from the Gauss norm.
Since g acts on Ccla(N,Kμ) by differential operators, Cla(N,Kμ)(X) is an U(g)-invariant subspace. Using the natural isomorphism we transfer this action of U(g) to Cla(X,Kμ), and to its U(g)-invariant subspaces Can(X,Kμ) and Cpol(X,Kμ). This makes the map
[TABLE]
an isomorphism of U(g)-modules.
We now use the basis we have just constructed for Cpol(N,Kμ) to study Cpol(X,Kμ).
Lemma 16**.**
Any f∈Can(X,Kμ) can be written uniquely as ∑ν∈Zμfν where Zμ⊆h∗ is the (countable) set of weights of Cpol(X,Kμ) and fν∈Cpol(X,Kμ)ν for each ν∈Zμ.
Proof.
Choose T1,⋯,Tr∈Cpol(N,Kμ) as in Theorem 13, but rescale them so that sup{Ti(x):x∈X}=1. Replacing each Ti with its restriction to X we get Cpol(X,Kμ)=K[T1,⋯,Tr], so Zμ={μ−∑niαi:ni≥0 for all i}. Then Can(X,Kμ) is the affinoid algebra
[TABLE]
with norm ∥∑anT1n1⋯Trnr∥=sup∣an∣. Given f=∑nanT1n1⋯Trnr∈K⟨T1,⋯,Tr⟩, for any ν∈Zμ we define fν=n:∑ni=μ−ν∑anT1n1⋯Trnr. This is in Cpol(X,Kμ)ν, and we clearly have f=∑ν∈Zμfν.
Suppose f=∑ν∈Zμfν=∑ν∈Zμfν′, with fν and fν′∈Cpol(X,Kμ)ν. Then 0=∑ν∈Zμ(fν−fν′) and by considering coefficients of the T1n1⋯Trnr we see that fν=fν′ for all ν∈Zμ. Thus the expression is unique.
∎
Corollary 17**.**
For all μ,η∈X(T) we have Can(X,Kμ)η=Cpol(X,Kμ)η
Proof.
Clearly Cpol(X,Kμ)η⊆Can(X,Kμ)η. Let f be a non-zero element in Can(X,Kμ)η. By Lemma 16f=∑ν∈Zμfν, so for all Y∈h we have 0=η(Y)f−Yf=∑ν∈Zμ(η(Y)−ν(Y))fν. Since the unique expression for [math] is ∑0 we must have (η(Y)−ν(Y))fν=0 for all ν∈Zμ. Hence for all ν=η we have fν=0, and thus we must have η∈Zμ and f=fη∈Cpol(X,Kμ)η.
∎
We define δ−1 by v↦d−1(v⊗1X)∣X. Let ϕ denote the map V→Cpol(N,Kλ) from (6), so d−1(∑vi⊗1Xi)=∑ϕ(vi)∣Xi. It follows that δ−1(v)=ϕ(v)∣X, from which it is easily seen that δ−1 is well-defined, injective and has imδ−1⊆Cpol(X,Kλ).
Given f∈Can(X,Kμ) we can extend it by [math] to get f∈Ccla(N,Kμ). We define δ0 by sending f↦d0(f)∣X, where each component is restricted to X. As d0=⨁α∈Δθα,λla, this is well-defined by Lemma 11.4. We know that d0∘d−1=0 from the exactness of (7), so for any v∈V
[TABLE]
using Lemma 11.1. Thus δ0∘δ−1=0, and it only remains to show that kerδ0⊆imδ−1.
Let f∈kerδ0 and suppose we can show that kerδ0⊆Cpol(X,Kλ). Then f∈kerd0 is in Cclp(N,Kλ), so by exactness of (7) we can find ∑vi⊗1Xi∈V⊗Ccsm(N,K) such that d−1(∑vi⊗1Xi)=f. We may assume that the Xi are disjoint charts of N and that Xi⊆X for all i. Let us compare d−1(∑vi⊗1Xi)=f with d−1(v1⊗1X)=ϕ(v1)∣X. They are both analytic on X and they agree on the open subset X1, so they must agree on all of X. Hence f=ϕ(v1)∣X=δ−1(v1) and we’ve shown that f∈imδ−1.
To complete the proof it suffices to show that kerδ0⊆Cpol(X,Kλ). Fix f∈kerδ0. As δ0=⨁θα,λ where the sum is over all simple roots α, this means θα,λ(f)=0 for all α∈Δ. By Lemma 16 for μ=λ we can write f as ∑ν∈Zλfν with fν∈Cpol(X,Kλ)ν. Now for any α∈Δ, θα,λ preserves weights and θα,λ(∑ν∈Zλfν)=∑ν∈Zλθα,λ(fν), so by the uniqueness of Lemma 16 for μ=sα⋅λ we must have θα,λ(fν)=0 for each ν∈Zλ. This is true for all simple roots, so δ0(fν)=0. By the exactness of (7) we can therefore find vν∈V such that δ−1(vν)=fν. In fact, as δ−1 is U(g)-equivariant we must have vν∈Vν. But since V is finite dimensional Vν=0 for all but finitely many weights. Hence fν=0 for all but finitely many weights, and so f∈⨁ν∈ZλCpol(X,Kλ)ν=Cpol(X,Kλ).
∎
It follows from the exactness of (7) that d−1 is injective and d0∘d−1=0. It only remains to prove that kerd0⊆imd−1.
Let us fix f∈kerd0. By the definition of f being locally analytic with compact support, we can find a finite set of disjoint charts {Xi:i∈I} of N such that f∣Xi is analytic for each i and f is [math] outside ⋃Xi. Applying Lemma 18 with X=Xi we get vi∈V such that f∣Xi=d−1(vi⊗1Xi). Hence f=d−1(∑i∈Ivi⊗1Xi) and we deduce that kerd0⊆imd−1.
∎
8 Locally analytic principal series for subgroups with an Iwahori factorisation
In this section we complete the proof that (8) is exact. To do this we have to introduce a particular kind of open compact subgroup of G.
Definition 20**.**
We say an open compact subgroup G1⊆Gadmits an Iwahori factorisation (with respect to B and B) if multiplication induces an isomorphism of L-analytic manifolds
[TABLE]
where N1=N∩G1, T1=T∩G1 and N1=N∩G1.
The canonical example of an open compact subgroup of G with an Iwahori factorisation is the Iwahori subgroup contained in a given special good maximal compact subgroup of G, and of type a given Borel subgroup. These are far from the only examples – indeed Proposition 4.1.6 of [10] proves that we can find arbitrarily small such subgroups. Let us fix an open compact subgroup G1⊆G which admits an Iwahori factorisation.
Definition 21**.**
Let ν:T1→K× be a locally analytic character. We extend it to a character ν:B1→K× using B→B/N≅T. The locally analytic principal series associated to G1 and ν is IndB1G1(ν).
This has an action of G1 by right translation. Since (B1)\G1≅N1 is compact, it follows from 4.1.5 of [12] that this is a locally analytic representation of G1, and so we can differentiate the G1-action to get an action of U(g).
Lemma 22**.**
The locally analytic principal series IndB1G1(ν) is an admissible representation of G1.
Proof.
Proposition 6.4.iii of [20] says that a closed G1-invariant subspace of an admissible G1-representation is an admissible G1-representation. Since IndB1G1(ν) is isomorphic as a G1-representation to a closed, G1-invariant subspace of IndBG(ν), it is sufficient to show that IndBG(ν) is an admissible G1-representation. By the definition of admissibility for locally analytic representations, this is equivalent to it being an admissible G-representation, which is shown at the beginning of §6 of [21].
∎
In fact IndB1G1(ν) has an action of a monoid containing G1. We define T−={t∈T:t−1N1t⊆N1}, which is a submonoid of T. We define M to be G1T−G1, a submonoid of G containing G1. Then BN1M⊆BN1, so the action of M on IndBG(ν) preserves IndBG(ν)(N1). We can identify IndB1G1(ν) with IndBG(ν)(N1) using extension by [math], which gives us an action of M on IndB1G1(ν). We can also using the U(g)-equivariant isomorphism IndBG(ν)(N)≅Ccla(N,Kν) to identify IndBG(ν)(N1) with Ccla(N,Kν)(N1) and so transfer the M-action to Ccla(N,Kν)(N1).
Lemma 23**.**
Given a non-zero morphism ψ:Mb(μ)→Mb(λ), let ϕ:Ccla(N,Kλ)(N1)→Ccla(N,Kμ)(N1) denote the function obtained by restricting ψla. Then ϕ is M-equivariant.
Proof.
That ϕ is well-defined follows from Lemma 11.2. Using the M-equivariant isomorphism Ccla(N,Kν)(N1)→IndBG(ν)(N1) we can turn ϕ into a map IndBG(λ)(N1)→IndBG(μ)(N1). This map is precisely (uψ)L, and the L action of g commutes with the right regular action of M.
∎
We define the smooth induction of the trivial character
[TABLE]
and we have Csm(N1,K)≅sm-IndB1G1(1)≅sm-IndBG(1)(N1) as U(g)-modules. The same argument as for IndB1G1(ν) gives us an action of M on all of these spaces.
Proposition 24**.**
When we restrict (8) to functions with support in N1 we get an exact sequence of M-representations
[TABLE]
Proof.
For i≥0, δi is well-defined by Lemma 11.2 and M-equivariant by Lemma 23. That δ−1 is well-defined and M-equivariant follows immediately from the definition of d−1. (We use di to refer to the maps in (8).)
By Theorem 19 it is immediate that δ−1 is an injection and δ0∘δ−1=0. It also implies that kerδ0⊆imδ−1, by the following argument. Suppose that f∈Ccla(N,Kλ)(N1) is in kerδ0. Then we know that it has a preimage ∑vi⊗1Xi∈V⊗KCcsm(N,K) where the Xi are disjoint charts of N. If we let ϕ denote the injection V→Cpol(N,Kλ) from (6) then d−1(∑vi⊗1Xi)=∑ϕ(vi)1Xi, whence it follows that Xi⊆N1 for all i and f∈imδ−1.
We now prove exactness at ⨁w∈W(i)Ccla(N,Kw⋅λ)(N1) for i≥1. Since (7) is exact and Ccla(N,Kμ) is dense in Ccla(N,Kμ) we know that di∘di−1=0, and hence δi∘δi−1=0. Thus, it suffices to prove that kerδi⊆imδi−1.
Fix (fw)w∈Wi∈kerδi. Let us first suppose that we have a chart X⊆N1 such that each fw is analytic on X and [math] outside it. Since Zλ⊇Zw⋅λ for all w∈W, by Lemma 16, we can write each fw uniquely as ∑ν∈Zλfw,ν where fw,ν∣X∈Cpol(X,w⋅λ)ν and fw,ν is [math] outside X. Using the fact that δi is U(g)-equivariant, and applying Lemma 16 with μ=w⋅λ for each w∈W(i+1), we see that (fw,ν)w∈W(i)∈kerδi for each ν∈Zλ. Since Zλ is countable let us choose an increasing sequence of finite subsets An⊆Zλ such that ⋃n=1∞An=Zλ and set fw,n=∑ν∈Anfw,ν. Then (fw,n)w∈W(i) tends to (fw)w∈W(i) as n→∞. By the exactness of (7), each (fw,n)w∈W(i) is in imdi−1, and hence in imδi−1 by Lemma 11.3. We want to show that their limit must therefore also be in imδi−1. It is sufficient to demonstrate that imδi−1 is closed.
As explained in Lemma 22, Ccla(N,Kν)(N1)≅IndB1G1(ν) is an admissible G1-representation, and hence δi−1 is a G1-equivariant, K-linear map between two admissible G1-representations. By Proposition 6.4.ii in [20], the image of δi−1 is closed.
This deals with the case that there is a chart X⊆N1 such that each fw is analytic on X and [math] outside of it. For a general (fw)w∈W(i)∈kerδi we can find a finite set of disjoint charts {Xj} which cover N1 and such that for all w∈W(i) and all j, fw is analytic on Xj. We know that ((fw)∣Xj)w∈W(i) is still in kerδi, so by the above arguments we can find a preimage for it, and adding these all together we get a preimage for (fw)w∈W(i).
∎
Theorem 19 deals with exactness at V⊗KCcsm(N,K) and Ccla(N,Kλ). Let i≥1. We explained in Proposition 24 that di∘di−1=0, so it only remains to show that kerdi⊆imdi−1.
Consider (fw)w∈W(i) in kerdi such that for some n∈N, Suppfw⊆N1n for all w∈W(i). Then for all w∈W(i), Suppnfw⊆N1, and by Lemma 11.5 we have di((nfw)w∈W(i))=ndi((fw)w∈W(i))=0. We proved in Proposition 24 that we therefore have a preimage (gw)w∈W(i−1) of (nfw)w∈W(i). Then ((n−1gw)w∈W(i−1) is a preimage of (fw)w∈W(i).
A general (fw)w∈W(i)∈kerdi can be written as a finite sum of such functions, so by linearity we are done.
∎
Using the results of §8 we now construct an exact series analogous that in Theorem 26 for locally analytic principal series for G. Let G0 be a special good maximal compact subgroup of G. The Iwasawa decomposition says that G=BG0 (cf. §3.5 in [4]), which gives us an isomorphism of G0-representations
[TABLE]
where B0=B∩G0.
We may fix representatives of W which are in G0, by 4.2.3 of [3].
Let G1⊆G0 be the Iwahori subgroup of the same type as B. This has an Iwahori factorisation with respect to B and B and we have the Bruhat-Iwahori decomposition
[TABLE]
It follows that we have an isomorphism of G1-representations
[TABLE]
where the action of G1 on IndB∩wG1w−1wG1w−1(ν) is via G1→wG1w−1, g↦wgw−1.
In §4 we started with a map ψ:Mb(μ)→Mb(λ) and produced ψla:Ccla(N,Kλ)→Ccla(N,Kμ). This leads to a G1-equivariant map
[TABLE]
Lemma 28**.**
Using IndBG(ν)≅IndB0G0(ν)≅⨁w∈WIndB∩wG1w−1wG1w−1(ν), the above maps give us a G1-equivariant map IndBG(λ)→IndBG(μ). It is in fact G-equivariant.
Proof.
We will show that this map is precisely (uψ)L, which is G-equivariant. Let f∈IndBG(λ). This corresponds to
[TABLE]
which is in turn sent to
[TABLE]
There is a unique f′∈IndBG(μ) such that (wf′)∣wG1w−1=(uψ)L(wf)∣wG1w−1 for all w∈W. Since
[TABLE]
the obvious candidate for f′ is (uψ)Lf. We must show that (uψ)Lf∈IndBG(μ). Since G=BG0=B(⨆w∈WB0wG1)=⨆w∈WBwG1, it suffices to prove that (uψ)Lf(bwg)=μ(b)(uψ)Lf(wg) for all b∈B, w∈W and g∈G1.
Fix w∈W. We have wf∈IndBG(λ) and hence (wf)∣N∈IndBG(λ)(N). In the proof of Theorem 10 we showed that (uψ)LIndBG(λ)(N)⊆IndBG(μ)(N), so (uψ)L((wf)∣N)∈IndBG(μ)(N). Let b∈B and g∈G1. By Lemma 7, (uψ)L((wf)∣N)=((uψ)Lwf)∣N), and wgw−1∈BN by Lemma 27, so
[TABLE]
whence it immediately follows that (uψ)Lf(bwg)=μ(b)(uψ)Lf(wg).
∎
We can now prove an analogue of Theorem 26 for locally analytic principal series for all of G. This has been done independently by different methods in §4.9 of [16].
Theorem 29**.**
We have an exact sequence of G-representations
[TABLE]
coming from the BGG resolution for V∗.
Proof.
For each w∈W we have an exact sequence of wG1w−1-representations
[TABLE]
by Lemma 27 and the results of §8. Letting G1 act via G1→wG1w−1, taking the direct sum of these exact sequences over all w∈W and using the isomorphism of G1-representations IndBG(ν)≅⨁w∈WIndB∩wG1w−1wG1w−1(ν) and its smooth analogue we get the required exact sequence, but only as an exact sequence of G1-representations. It remains to show that the maps are G-equivariant.
First consider d−1:V⊗sm-IndBG(1)→IndBG(λ). Given v⊗f∈V⊗sm-IndBG(1) we construct d−1(v⊗f) as follows. First we send v⊗f to
[TABLE]
We then apply the maps
[TABLE]
where ϕ is the G-equivariant isomorphism from V to the algebraic induction of λ from B to G. This gives us (ϕ(wv)(wf)∣wG1w−1)w∈W, which can be expressed as (w(ϕ(v)f)∣wG1w−1)w∈W. Applying the inverse of the isomorphism IndB0G0(λ)≅⨁w∈WIndB∩wG1w−1wG1w−1(λ) we get that d−1(v⊗f)=ϕ(v)f and hence d−1 is G-equivariant.
The G-equivariance of di:⨁w∈W(i)IndBG(w⋅λ)→⨁w∈W(i+1)IndBG(w⋅λ) for i≥0 follows easily from Lemma 28 and the fact that the maps ⨁w∈W(i)IndB∩wG1w−1wG1w−1(w⋅λ)→⨁w∈W(i)IndB∩wG1w−1wG1w−1(w⋅λ) are constructed from maps of the form (uθα,w⋅λ)L.

10 Analytic principal series for subgroups with an Iwahori factorisation
Let G1 be an open compact subgroup of G which admits an Iwahori factorisation, and such that there is a locally analytic isomorphism between N1 and the L-points of a rigid analytic space which is compatible with all charts of N. Let ν:T1→K× be a locally analytic character. We extend it to a character ν:B1→K× using B→B/N≅T.
Definition 30**.**
The analytic principal series associated to G1 and ν is
[TABLE]
From now on we assume that ν comes from restricting an element of X(T), as this is the case we are interested in.
The action of U(g) on IndB1G1(ν) preserves an-IndB1G1(ν) because the right regular action of g on Cla(G,K) is via differential operators, which preserve the property of being analytic on N1. We use this to give an-IndB1G1(ν) an action of U(g).
Lemma 31**.**
The action of M on IndB1G1(ν) preserves an-IndB1G1(ν).
Proof.
Consider the image of an-IndB1G1(ν) under the isomorphism IndB1G1(ν)≅IndBG(ν)(N1). Since ν is analytic it consists of all functions which are analytic on BG1=BN1 and [math] outside it. Since BG1M⊆BG1, this is preserved by the action of M.
∎
We use this to give an-IndB1G1(ν) an action of M.
Theorem 32**.**
The sequence (8) gives an exact sequence of M-representations
[TABLE]
Proof.
Setting X=N1 and using the isomorphism an-IndB1G1(ν)≅Can(N1,Kν), we showed this sequence was exact in Lemma 18. The maps are M-equivariant because they are the restriction of maps from the exact sequence in Theorem 26, which are M-equivariant, and we have shown the spaces are M-stable.
∎
The analogue of the whole of (8) with analytic principal series is a chain complex but is not in general exact.
11 Applications to overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms I
In this section we outline the definition of spaces of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms given in [5] and construct an exact sequence between certain such spaces. This has already been done in [5] but is included here for completeness.
Let F be a number field. Let U be an algebraic group defined over F such that U(Fv) is compact for all infinite places v of F and U(Fv)≅GLn(Qp) for all places v of F dividing p. Let Sp denote the set of all places of F dividing p and fix an isomorphism U(Fv)≅GLn(Qp) for all v∈Sp.
Let G be the algebraic group GLnSp defined over Qp. Let G=G(Qp), B⊆G the Borel consisting of lower triangular matrices and T⊆G the maximal torus consisting of diagonal matrices. Define G1⊆G to be the Iwahori subgroup of GLn(Zp) coming from B. (Because of differing conventions what we call B is called B in [5] and vice versa.)
Let Af denote the finite adèles and AfSp the finite adèles away from v∈Sp. Fix an open compact subgroup U of U(Af) of the form G1×USp where USp is an open compact subgroup of U(AfSp). Consider the functor F from representations of M=G1T−G1 over Qp to Qp-vector spaces given by setting F(A) to be the set of all functions ϕ:U(F)\U(AF,f)→A such that ϕ(gx)=(∏v∣pxv)−1ϕ(g) for all g∈U(AF,f) and x∈U. This is an exact functor.
For χ∈X(T) Chenevier defines a representation Cχ of M which can easily be shown to be isomorphic to an-IndB1G1(−χ). (Recall the group operation on X(T) is written additively, so (−χ)(t)=χ(t)−1.) He defines the space of automorphic forms of U of weight χ and level U to be F(Cχ).
Theorem 33**.**
Let V be a finite dimensional irreducible algebraic representation of G, with lowest weight λ∈X(T). We have an exact sequence
[TABLE]
Proof.
Consider the exact sequence in Theorem 32 for V∗, which has highest weight −λ. Applying the functor F we get the required exact sequence.
∎
Note that when we talk about highest and lowest weights we mean with respect to the choice of positive roots given by B. Since Chenevier takes our B for his choice of positive roots, in his terminology V has highest weight λ.
Chenevier calls F(V∗) the space of classical overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms.
12 Applications to overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms II
In this section we outline the definition of spaces of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms given in [14] and construct an exact sequence involving them.
Choose a number field F and a prime p of F. Let H be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over F such that H(F⊗QR) is compact modulo centre. Write H∞0 for the identity component of H(F⊗QR). Let AF denote the adèles of F, AF,f the finite adèles of F and AF,f(p) the finite adèles of F away from p. Let L=Fp and let G be the base change of H to L. Assume that G is quasi-split.
We are now in the situation of [14], with the added assumption that the parabolic subgroup P⊆H(Fp) is a Borel. Let us now outline the definition of the space of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms for H used in [14]. In the terminology of [14], we consider only the case where X in arithmetic weight space is in fact the singleton 1 consisting of the trivial weight and V is a one-dimensional representation of T1 of the form Kμ for μ∈X(T) which is an arithmetical character. The field called E in [14] we call K, the group called G0 we call G1 and the monoid called I we call M. We put the extra condition on G1 that if t∈T such that ∣α(t)∣<1 for all α∈Δ then tN1t−1⊆N1 and t−1N1t⊆N1.
A representation of M=G1T−G1 over K is said to be arithmetical if there is a finite index subgroup in ZH(oF)⊆M which acts trivially.
For an arithmetical representation A of M over K we define L(A) to be the set of all functions ϕ:H(F)\H(AF)→A such that there exists some open subset U⊆H(AF,f(p))×G1 (which can depend on ϕ) with ϕ(hu)=up−1ϕ(h) for all u∈U×H∞0 and h∈H(AF).
For a sufficiently large integer k the space of k-overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms M(e,1,V,k) for H with weight (1,Kμ) and type e is defined to be eL(C(1,Kμ,k)). Here e is an idempotent in a certain Hecke algebra H+(G) which corresponds to the tame level – see [14] for more details, and for the definition of C(1,Kμ,k).
For k large enough that C(1,Kμ,k) is defined there is a natural map C(1,Kμ,k)→C(1,Kμ,k+1), so by functoriality there is a natural map eL(C(1,Kμ,k))→eL(C(1,Kμ,k+1)) (which is injective with dense image). We make the following definition.
Definition 34**.**
The space M(e,Kμ) of overconvergent p-adic automorphic forms of weight Kμ and type e is defined to be limkM(e,1,Kμ,k)).
In the proof of Proposition 3.10.1 in [14] we see that limkM(e,1,Kμ,k)) is isomorphic to eL(IndB1G1(μ)), so we have M(e,Kμ)=eL(IndB1G1(μ)).
We define the classical subspace M(e,Kμ)cl to be eL(IndB1G1(μ)cl), where IndB1G1(μ)cl is the intersection of IndB1G1(μ) with the image of Cpol(G1,K)⊗KCsm(G1,K) under the natural multiplication map, i.e. the subrepresentation of locally polynomial vectors in IndB1G1(μ). In particular, IndB1G1(λ)cl=V⊗Ksm-IndB1G1(1).
Theorem 35**.**
If λ∈X(T) is a dominant arithmetical character then we have an exact sequence
[TABLE]
Proof.
We first show that all the terms in the exact sequence in Theorem 26 are arithmetical. In the proof of Theorem 12 we showed that w⋅λ∣ZG=λ∣ZG for all w∈W. As Kλ is arithmetical and ZH(oF)⊆ZG(L), we see that Kw⋅λ is arithmetical for all w∈W. Since ZH(oF) acts on IndB1G1(μ) via the same character that it acts on Kμ, it follows that IndB1G1(w⋅λ) is arithmetical for all w∈W. Finally, V⊗Ksm-IndB1G1(1) injects into an arithmetical representation and is therefore also arithmetical.
As explained in the proof of Corollary 3.3.5 in [14], the functor eL on the category of arithmetic representations is the same as taking the image of an idempotent in a finite-dimensional matrix algebra over the group ring K[G1]. It is hence exact, and applying it to the exact sequence in Theorem 26 we get the required exact sequence.
∎
The maps in the exact sequence in Theorem 26 are made up of maps of the form (uψ)L:IndB1G1(w⋅λ)→IndB1G1(sαw⋅λ). Given one of these maps, we define θα,w⋅λaut to be eL((uψ)L):M(e,Kw⋅λ)→M(e,Ksαw⋅λ). All the maps in the exact sequence in Theorem 35 after the first are made up from these θα,w⋅λaut. In particular, M(e,Kλ)→⨁w∈W(1)M(e,Kw⋅λ) is ⨁α∈Δθα,λaut, from which we deduce that for any dominant weight λ∈X(T), f∈M(e,Kλ) is in M(e,Kλ)cl if and only if f∈kerθα,λaut for all α∈Δ.
