Abstract
For a reductive group G and a finite order Cartan-type automorphism \iota of G, we construct an eigenvariety parameterizing \iota-invariant cuspidal Hecke eigensystems of G. In particular, for G = Gln, we prove, any self-dual cuspidal Hecke eigensystem can be deformed in a p-adic family of self-dual cuspidal Hecke eigensystems containing a Zariski dense subset of classical points.

Abstract
For a reductive group G and a finite order Cartan-type automorphism ι of G, we construct an eigenvariety parameterizing ι-invariant cuspidal Hecke eigensystems of G. In particular, for G=Gln, we prove, any self-dual cuspidal Hecke eigensystem can be deformed in a p-adic family of self-dual cuspidal Hecke eigensystems containing a Zariski dense subset of classical points.

1 INTRODUCTION
Consider G a reductive group over Q. Let SG(Kf) be the locally symmetric space associated to G and a neat open subgroup Kf of the finite adelic points of G. Let T be a maximal torus of G and λ a regular dominant algebraic weight of G with respect to T. Consider Vλ, the finite dimensional irreducible algebraic representation of G with highest weight λ, and its dual Vλ∨. There is a standard action of the Hecke algebra HG on the cohomology spaces H∗(SG(Kf),Vλ∨(C)). Those automorphic representations which can be realized in H∗(SG(Kf),Vλ∨(C)) are said of level Kf and cohomological weight λ.
Let’s fix a prime p and an embedding ip:Qp↪C. Ones are interested in the behavior of automorphic representations when their weights varying p-adically. This leads to the study of p-adic automorphic representations. For simplicity, assume G splits over Qp. Let B be a Borel subgroup of G/Qp containing T, consider the situation Kf=KpIm. Here Kp⊂G(Afp) and Im is an Iwahori subgroup of G(Qp) in good position with respect to the pair (B,T). Let Hp be the p-adic Hecke algebras of G under this setting (see §2.1). If π is a finite slope automorphic representation of G of algebraic cohomological weight λalg, its p-stabilizations are irreducible representations of Hp that can be realized in the cohomology space H∗(SG(Kf),Vλ∨(Qp)) (refer (Urban, , §4.1.9)). Here λ=λalgϵ is a p-adic arithmetic weight obtained by twisting λalg with some finite order character ϵ of T(Zp), and Vλ is the locally algebraic induced representation of a p-adic cell of G(Qp) from λ (see §2.3). Those representations of Hp from p-stabilization are most important examples of p-adic automorphic representations, and are called classical. If we further remove the “bad” places form Hp, we obtain a commutative algebra RS,p, which can be identified in the center of Hp. Here S is the finite subset of “bad” places defined in §2.1. The central character of a classical p-adic automorphic representation defines a character of RS,p appearing in H∗(SG(Kf),Vλ∨(Qp)) for some arithmetic p-adic weight λ. It is called a p-adic arithmetic Hecke eigensystem of weight λ.
So ones are interested in interpolating the arithmetic Hecke eigensystems for weight λ over the p-adic weight space X. To do this, Ash and Stevens developped the notion of “overconvergent” cohomology, which played the role of “overconvergent modular forms” in the classical theory of p-adic modular forms (Ash-Stevens ). Concretely speaking, for a p-adic weight λ∈X(Qp), one can construct a distribution space Dλ, on which the Up operators acts as compact operaters (see §2.3). This gives an action of Hp on the “overconvergent ” cohomology spaces H∗(SG(Kf),Dλ). We call an irreducible representation of Hp (resp. a character of RS,p) appearing in H∗(SG(Kf),Dλ(Qp)) a p-adic overconvergent automorphic representation (resp. Hecke eigensystem). It is proved in Ash-Stevens , (Urban, , Theorem 5.4.4) and (Xiang, , Corollary 8.6) that every finite slope arithmetic cuspidal Hecke eigensystem θ can be deformed into a p-adic analytic family of finite slope overconvergent cuspidal Hecke eigensystems. This result is a consequence of the existence of a geometric object named “eigenvariety” after Coleman-Mazur’s work of “eigencurves”. An eigenvariety for group G is a rigid analytic space whose points parametrize overconvergent Hecke eigensystems. A large part of the works Ash-Stevens , Urban and Xiang mentioned above are devoted to the construction of eigenvarieties for different groups.
There are two motivations for this paper. The first one is about the arithmeticity of a family of overconvergent Hecke eigensystems, that is, if a p-adic family obtained above contains enough arithmetic Hecke eigensystems. In the language of eigenvariety, one asks if θ is lying in an irreducible component of an eigenvareity containing a Zariski dense subset of arithmetic points (such a component is called arithmetic. If θ is not in any arithmetic component, it is called arithmetically rigid). In APG , Ash, Pollack and Stevens show that the answer is not always positive, in particular, for G=Gl3, they make the next conjecture:
Conjecture 1.1** (Ash-Pollack-Stevens)**
Let θ be a finite slope cuspidal Hecke eigensystem of Gl3. If θ is not arithmetically rigid, then θ is essentially self-dual.
In this paper, we obtain the inverse of its statement for Gln:
Theorem 1.1.1
Every essentially self-dual finite slope cuspidal Hecke eigensystem of Gln is not arithmetically rigid.
We actually work on a more general situation. Let ι be Cartan-type automorphism of G such that ι stabilizes (B,T), and consider the ι-invariant automorphic representations (resp. overconvergent representations, Hecke eigensystems, etc.). Let Xι be the subspace of X consisting of ι-invariant p-adic weights (see §2.2), to study the family of ι-invariant Hecke eigensystems with weights varying in Xι, we construct twisted eigenvarieties over Xι parametrizing ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystems (see §6):
Theorem 1.1.2** (twisted eigenvarities)**
There is an eigenvariety GKpι parameterizing ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystems of G. Every point y∈GKpι(Qp) can be viewed as a pair (λ,θ), where θ is a ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystem of weight λ∈Xι(Qp). There is a subvariety EKpι of GKpι, satisfying:
(a)
For any arithmetic (λ,θ)∈GKpι(Qp), (λ,θ) is in EKpι(Qp) if and only if θ is cuspidal and has a non-trivial ι-twisted Euler-Poincare characteristic.
(b)
Every irreducible component of EKpι is arithmetic, equipped with a projection onto a Zariski dense subset of Xι.
(c)
EKpι* is equidimensional with the same dimension to Xι.*
In particular, if G=Gln and ι is a Cartan-type involution, the notion of ι-invariant is same to self-dual. Then the twisted Euler-Poincare characteristic of an (essentially) self-dual Hecke eigensystem is always non-trivial. So EKpι parameterizes all self-dual finite slope cuspidal Hecke eigensystems (see §7). In case that n=3, this also gives some hint for Ash-Pollack-Stevens’ conjecture, as in Theorem 7.3.2 and Remark 7.3.3 below.
Our second motivation is to develop a twisted version of Urban’s theory of finite slope character distribution (Urban, , §4.5). A finite slope character distribution is a morphism J:Hp→Qp which is a linear combination of the traces of finite slope overconvergent representations. Urban proves that, there is an eigenvariety associated to every analytic family of effective finite slope character distributions, (Urban, , §5). This eigenvariety parameterizes the finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystems appearing in the character distributions. However, Urban’s theory excludes many interesting cases, like Gln with n>2. The reason is, the coefficients of Urban’s distributions are essentially given by the Euler-Poincare characteristics. So for a group G such that G(R) does not satisfy the Harish-Chandra condition, they are trivial. To avoids this issue, we construct the notion of “twisted” finite slope character distributions (see §5). Concretely, we construct a distribution which is a linear combination of the twisted traces of ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent representations. We show this distribution has similar property as Urban’s character distributions and it gives a construction of the twisted eigenvariety Eι in the theorem above (see §6).
In practice, there are two new difficulties occur since the involving of twisting action by ι. The first one is the lack of a twisted version of Franke’s trace formula as in (Urban, , Theorem 1.4.2), which plays an essential role to cut out the cuspidal representations from the whole cohomology. To cure this, we have to go through Franke’s theory of Eisenstein spectral sequence (Franke ), and study how ι acting on each step of Franke’s theory carefully. This is done in §4 and we proves a twisted version of Franke’s trace formula there (Theorem 4.3.10). The second difficulty appears during the construction of the twisted eigenvariety. Since we consider the twisted trace instead, locally our twisted distributions are no longer pseudo-representations as in (Urban, , §5.3.1), so we do not have the “second construction” as Urban did ((Urban, , §5.3)). We bypass this difficulty by borrowing the construction of the full eigenvariety in Xiang to construct a “bigger twisted eigenvariety” first and then working in this bigger space. This is done in §6.3.
One can view Urban’s finite slope character distribution as a p-adic analogue to Selberg’s trace formula, then our theory gives an analogue to the twisted trace formula. In (Urban, , §6), Urban gives a simplified geometric expansion for his distribution following the work of Franke Franke and Arthur Arthur . However, a complete expansion as (Arthur, , (3)) can also be given. In a consequent paper Xiang2 , we will establish a corresponding geometric expansion for our twisted distributions as well. One can then expect a p-adic family version comparison between them as Arthur-Clozel’s theory in AC . This comparison will give a relation between eigenvarieties.

2 PRELIMINARY
2.1 notation
Throughout this paper, we fix p a rational prime number and an identification Q^p≅C. Let A=AQ be the adelic ring of Q, A∞ and Af its archimedean and finite part respectively. For any algebraic group H over Q, put H∞=H(A∞) and Hf=H(Af). We also denote by H(A)1⊂H(A) the subgroup of all h∈H(A) with ∏v∣ξ(h)∣v=1 for all characters of H defined over Q, where the product is running over all places of Q.
Let G be a quasi-split111This assumption is not necessary but for the convenience of discussion only. Otherwise, one has to use the notation as in (Urban, , §1.3.1). reductive group over Q, denote by Z=ZG its center. Let K∞ be a fixed maximal compact subgroup of G∞, and fix a good maximal compact subgroup K⊂G(A) whose archimedean component is K∞. For every prime number l, denote by Kl an open compact subgroup of G(Ql). Put Kf=∏lKl such that for almost all l=p, Kl to be maximal. Denote by Kp=Kfp=∏l=pKl and K=K∞Kf. Consider the locally symmetric space of G associated to Kf:
[TABLE]
Properly choose a finite set of representatives {gi}i in G(A) such that
[TABLE]
where G∞+ is the identity component of G∞. We then have
[TABLE]
where Γi=Γ(gi,K) is the image of giKgi−1∩G(Q)+ in Gad(Q) and HG=G∞+/K∞Z∞. We further assume K is neat (that is, Γi contains no element of finite order), then SG(Kf) is a smooth real analytic variety of a finite dimension, say, d. We also write
[TABLE]
Let T be a maximal torus of G and B a Borel subgroup of G containing T. Let N be the unipotent radical of B, and N− its opposite. At p, we fix a Iwahori subgroup I of G(Qp) with respect to B, this means that we have fixed compatible integral models G,B,T,N,N− for G,B,T,N,N− over Zp (according to a fixed chamber CI of the Bruhat-Tits building BL of GQp), such that I=I1, where for any integer m≥1,
[TABLE]
By Iwahori decomposition,
[TABLE]
We normalize the Haar measure on G(Qp) such that the measure of I is 1. Once fixing the Iwahori level at p, we write
[TABLE]
Now put
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
and consider the p-adic cells
[TABLE]
For any g∈Δm+, write g=ng−tgng+ by Iwahori decomposition, then the ∗-action of Δm+ on Ωm is defined as follow (see (Urban, , §3.1.3) and (Ash-Stevens, , §5.2)): Fixing a splitting ξ of the exact sequence
[TABLE]
for any [x]∈Ω, define
[TABLE]
As in (Urban, , §3.1.2 (11)), we choose ξ so that for any algebraic character λalg∈X∗(T) and t∈T(Qp)
[TABLE]
The Atkin-Lehner algebra of G at p is defined by:
[TABLE]
it does not depend on m. We then define the global p-adic Hecke algebras:
[TABLE]
and for any open compact subgroup Kp of G(Afp), define its subalgebra of Kp-bi-invariant functions by:
[TABLE]
Given t∈T+, denote by ut the element in Up whose image in Zp[T+/T(Zp)] is t. A Hecke operator f is called admissible, if f=fp⊗ut and t∈T++. We denote by Hp′ the subalgebra of Hp generated by admissible operators. For fixed Kp, let S be the finite set of primes l such that Kl is not maximal, define
[TABLE]
RS,p is commutative and can be identified in the center of Hp(Kp).
Throughout this paper, we assume that G has a finite order automorphism ι of Cartan-type, that is, at ∞, ι is of the form ad(g∞)∘θ, for some g∞∈G∞ and the Cartan involution θ (with respect to K∞). It is innocuous to assume that the triples (B,T,Im) are stable under ι. Indeed, let (B,T,Im) be such a triple and ψ0 the based root datum associated to it, consider the splitting exact sequence (Springer, , 2.14):
[TABLE]
If (B,T,Im) is not stable under ι, we fix a splitting
[TABLE]
and replace ι by its image ι′ under γβ, then ι′ fixes the pair (B,T). Since ι′ has the same image under β as ι, it differs ι by a conjugation. So ι′ is also of Cartan-type. Since Aut(ψ0) is finite, that ι′ is of finite order. Finally, noticing that {uα} is the set of an arbtary choice of 1=uα∈Uα in each unipotent root subgroup Uα associated to the basis {α} in ψ0, we can properly choose {uα} such that each uα corresponds to a wall of one same chambre C in BL. C gives an Iwahori subgrop which is stable under ι′.
Further assuming that Kfp is stable under ι, we define ι acting on the Hecke algebra Hp(Kp) by sending f to fι, where fι(g):=f(gι−1) for any g∈G. Noting that T+ and T++ are stable under ι by (2.1.8) and (2.1.9), This is well defined. Moreover, for ut∈Up,

2.2 weight spaces
2.2.1 classical weight and coweight
Let X∗(T) be the set of algebraic weights of T, and X∗(T) the set of algebraic coweights. There is a canonical duality pairing
[TABLE]
such that for any λ∈X∗(T), μ∨∈X∗(T) and a∈Gm,
[TABLE]
We define ι acting on X∗(T) by sending λ to λι such that λι(t)=λ(tι−1) for any t∈T, and define ι acting on X∗(T) by sending μ∨ to (μ∨)ι such that (μ∨)ι(a)=(μ∨(a))ι−1 for any a∈Gm. It is easy to see that
[TABLE]
2.2.2 p-adic weight space
There is a rigid space XT associated to T, such that for any field L⊂Qp,
[TABLE]
Since T(Zp)=Zpr×Π,
with some finite group Π, that
[TABLE]
So the underlying space of XT is finite many copies of the r-tuple unit ball, its points are (continuous) p-adic weights. Put ZKp=Z(Q)⋂KpI and let X:=XKp⊆XT be the Zariski closure of the subset of p-adic weights which are trivial on ZKp. The automorphism ι induces a operator on X which sends λ to λι, where λι(t):=λ(tι−1) for any t∈T(Zp). Denote by Xι the subspace of X consisting of ι-invariant weights.
Recall, for any n, there is a rigid space Tn such that for any field L⊂Qp,
[TABLE]
where An(T(Zp),L) is the space of locally n-analytic L-valued functions on T(Zp). The natural pairing
[TABLE]
induces a continuous injective homomorphism T(Zp)↪O(XT)×.
Lemma 2.2.3
For any affinoid subdomain U⊆X or Xι, there exist a smallest integer
n(U), such that for any finite extension L of
Qp, every element λ∈U(L) is
n(U)-locally analytic. Moreover, there is a
rigid analytic map U×Tn(U)→B1,1, such that for any L, its realization at L-points is the pairing (\refabove).
It follows immediately from (Urban, , lemma 3.4.6).
2.3 analytic induced modules and distribution spaces
2.3.1 induced modules
We recall some definitions from (Urban, , §3.2) first. For λalg∈X∗(T), let Vλalg be the finite dimensional irreducible algebraic representation of G with highest weight λalg. It can be viewed as the algebraic induced representation:
[TABLE]
For field L as last section, let ϵ:T(Zp)→L× be a finite character of order m. We identify λalg with the p-adic weight obtained by the composition
[TABLE]
Now for the p-adic weight λ=λalgϵ, consider its m-locally analytic induction:
[TABLE]
There is a natural map
[TABLE]
The ∗-action described in §2.1 induces an action of Δ+ on Vλ(L), via the right ∗-translation.
For any λ∈X(L), let Aλ(L) be the space of locally L-analytic functions f on I such that
[TABLE]
where, as in (2.1.6), n−∈I∩N−(Qp), t∈T(Zp) and g∈I. Aλ(L) can be viewed as a subspace of A(Ω1,L), the space of locally L-analytic functions on Ω1: let T(Zp) act on A(Ω1,L) by the natural translation, then
[TABLE]
The ∗-action Δ+ on A(Ω1,L) is naturally defined, it commutes with the translation action of T(Zp) above. So the ∗-action of Δ+ is well defined on
Aλ(L). For g∈Δ+ and ϕ∈Aλ(L), we have
[TABLE]
Now define the distribution space
[TABLE]
be the continuous dual of Aλ(L). The ∗-action of Δ+ on Dλ(L) is naturally defined. A deatiled study of Aλ(L) and Dλ(L) can be found in (Urban, , lemma 3.2.8), in particular, we have next proposition:
Proposition 2.3.2
Dλ(L)* is a compact Frechet space over L. If
δ∈Δ++, then the ∗-action of δ defines a
compact operator on Dλ(L).*
Remark 1
The theory of compact operators on orthonormalizable (p-adic) Banach spaces is originally due to Serre and generalized by Coleman Coleman . The theory is generalized to compact Frechet spaces by Urban in (Urban, , section 2), where he shows that most results of compact operators on Banach spaces still hold for compact Frechet spaces.
For λ∈Xι, ι acts on Vλ, Vλ and Aλ. Concretely, let f be a function on N−(L)\G(L), define fι(g)=f(gι−1). If f is in one of those induced modules, fι(bg)=f(bι−1gι−1)=λ(tι−1)f(gι−1)=λ(t)fι(g), for any b=tn∈B. So Vλ, Vλ and Aλ are stable under ι. We let ι act on Dλ via duality.
2.3.3 analytic family of induced modules
Let U be an affinoid subdomain of X or Xι. Fix n≥n(U). There is a rigid space (Ωm)nrig such that O((Ωm)nrig/L)=An(Ωm,L) for any L⊂Qp, where An(Ωm,L) is the space of locally L-analytic functions on Ωm with local analytic radius p−n. Keeping this identity, let AU,n(L) be the ring of rigid analytic L-valued functions on U×(Ω1)nrig such that
[TABLE]
for any λ∈U(L), t∈T(Zp) and n∈N(Zp). Here we view f(λ,−) as a function in An(Ωm,L). This implies that
[TABLE]
In particular, AU,n is an
O(U)-orthonormalizable Banach space. Similar to (2.3.6), since
[TABLE]
that the ∗-action of Δ+ is well defined on AU,n.
Now define
[TABLE]
and let DU,n′:=HomO(U)(AU,n,O(U)) be the continuous O(U)-dual of AU,n. There is a canonical injective map
[TABLE]
Let DU,n be the image of this map, define
[TABLE]
AU and DU are Δ+-modules with the ∗-action. Since the inclusions
AU,n⊂AU,n+1
are completely continuous, DU is a Frechet space over O(U).
Proposition 2.3.4
Notation as above, we have
(a)
AU⊗λL≅Aλ(L)* and DU⊗λL≅Dλ(L) via specialization.*
(b)
If δ∈Δ++, the ∗-action of δ gives a compact operator on the O(U)-projective compact Frechet space DU.
All of these results can be found in (Urban, , section 3.4).
Remark 2
We make some remarks here:
(a)
The ∗-action of Δ+ on D is compatible with the
natural action of I on it.
(b)
The ∗-actions of Δ+ on Vλalg∨(L), Vλ∨(L), Dλ(L) and DU(L) are right action, we translate it into a left action by defining for every δ∈Δ+
[TABLE]
(c)
For Kf=KpI, we view D as a Kf-module via the projection Kf→I.
3 TWISTED ACTIONS ON RESOLUTIONS AND COHOMOLOGY SPACES
3.1 cohomology spaces and resolutions
We recall first some standard results on the cohomology spaces on which we work later. Let M be a (G(Q),K)-module on which ZK acts trivially. M defines a local system on SG(Kf), which is denoted by M as well. One is interested in the cohomology space
H∗(SG(Kf),M). In this paper, M is one of Vλalg∨(L), Vλ∨(L), Dλ(L) and DU(L), where the upper index ∨ indicates the continuous dual space.
There are two equivalent ways to define the cohomology. Let SG(Kf)=SG/Kf be the Borel-Serre compactification of SG(Kf). Then SG=G(Q)\G(Af)×HG and HG is a contractible real manifold with corners. There is a canonical projection:
[TABLE]
which extends the natural projection π:SG→SG(Kf).
Fix a finite triangulation of SG(Kf) and pull it back to SG. Let C∗(Kf) be the corresponding chain complex, that is, Cq(Kf) is the free Z-module over the set of q-dimensional simplexes of the pull-back triangulation. C∗(Kf) admits a right Kf-action, and Cq(Kf) is a free right Z[Kf]-module of finite rank. We define
[TABLE]
then RΓj(Kf,M) is isomorphic to finitely many copies of M and
[TABLE]
Another way to define the cohomology is using the M-valued de Rham complex Ω∗(SG(Kf),M). The natural duality between Ω∗(SG(Kf)) and C∗(Kf) implies that the two definitions are coincident.
Remark 3
As summarized in (Urban, , §1.2), for a (G(Q),K)-module M, there are two equivalent ways to define the local system M on SG(Kf), with respect to the Kf-module structure and to the G(Q)-module structure respectively. So are the two definitions of cohomology space above.
3.1.1 functoriality
There is a functoriality for RΓ∗(Kf,M). Let φ:Kf′→Kf be a group homomorphism and φ#:M→M′ a homomorphism between a Kf-module M and a Kf′-module M′, such that φ#(φ(k′)m)=k′φ#(m) for any k′∈Kf′ and m∈M. The pair (φ,φ#) then induces a morphism φ∗:RΓ∗(Kf,M)→RΓ∗(Kf′,M′) up to homotopy, see (Urban, , §4.2.5).
3.1.2 Hecke operators on resolution and cohomology
Apply the functoriality, as in (Urban, , §4.2), f=fp⊗ut∈Hp(Kp) defines a morphism RΓ(t):RΓ∗(Kf,M)→RΓ∗(Kf,M) by the composition:
[TABLE]
where the first map is given by the pair (ad(t−1),m↦t∗m), the second is by the restriction map from Kf∩tKft−1 to tKft−1, and the last one is given by the corestriction as writing
[TABLE]
It is easy to see that RΓ(t1)∘RΓ(t2)=RΓ(t1t2). This defines an action of Hp(Kp) on RΓ∗(Kf,M) and therefore defines an action on the cohomology spaces H∗(SG(Kf),M). We denote this action by ∗ as well.
If M=Dλ(L) and t∈T++, by the fact that RΓq(Kf,M) is a finite copy of M, Proposition 2.3.2 implies that f is a compact operator on RΓ∗(KpI,Dλ(L)). If U is an open affinoid of X and λ∈U, by Proposition 2.3.4, RΓ∗(KpI,Dλ(L)) can be obtained by the specialization of RΓ∗(KpI,DU) at λ. Moreover, for affinoids U′⊂U, RΓ∗(KpI,DU′) can be obtained via the natural restriction morphism O(U)→O(U′). The Hecke action is compatible with specialization and restriction.
3.1.3 ι action on resolution and cohomology
Assume λ∈Xι and U is an open affinoid of Xι. Let M be one of Vλ∨(L), Vλ∨(L), Dλ(L) and DU(L). Choose Kf=KpI⊂G(Af), such that Kp is stable under ι. Consider morphisms ι:Kf→Kf and ι:M→M defined as in §2.
Lemma 3.1.4
Assume M=Vλ∨(L), Vλ∨(L), Dλ(L) or DU(L). For g∈I, x∈M,
[TABLE]
Therefore, by the functoriality, ι defines an morphism on RΓ∗(Kf,M) up to homotopy. In particular, ι acts on the cohomology H∗(SG(Kf),M).
The lemma follows immediately from a computation by definition.
3.1.5 Action of ιHp(Kp)
For ι-invariant Kp, define the ι-twisted Hecke algebra:
[TABLE]
where ⟨ι⟩ is the finite group generated by ι and the semi-product ⋊ is understood as a crossed product, since at every place the local Hecke algebra can be viewed as a group algebra of double cosets. We write f×ι and ι×f for the products of f∈Hp(Kp) and ι. We similarly define ιHp, then ιHp is the inductive limit of ιHp(Kp).
Lemma 3.1.6
There is an action of ιHp(Kp) on RΓ∗(Kf,M), extending the ∗-action of Hp(Kp) and ι.
Proof
We have to check that the ∗-actions of Hp(Kp) and ι on RΓ∗(K,M) are compatible in the sense that ι×f=fι×ι. So we only have to check:
[TABLE]
which is again directly from the definition.
3.1.7 compare to the standard sheaf-theoretic action
Assume M=Vλ∨(C), we compute the cohomology by de Rham complex:
[TABLE]
and we have the standard sheaf-theoretic definion of Hp action on it. By (2.1.13), we have for any ϕ∈Vλ and δ∈Δ+,
[TABLE]
This implies for any f=fp⊗ut∈Hp, that the ∗-action of f on Hq(SG(Kp),M) is the standard action of f twisting by λ(ξ(t)).
The ι-action on Ω∗(SG(Kf),M)=Ω∗(SG(Kf))⊗M is define by (ι−1)∗⊗ι,
where (ι−1)∗ means the pull-back on differential forms induced by the map
[TABLE]
This ι-action can be described explicitly as follow. Let T(SG) and T(SG(Kf)) be the sheaves of left invarinat vecter fields on SG and SG(Kf) respectively, the projection π induces an push-forward surjection:
[TABLE]
One views an q differential form τ in Ω∗(SG(Kf),M) as a map
[TABLE]
then τι is defined as
[TABLE]
where vˉ is a left invariant vector field on SG, g∈G(A)1 and [g] indicates the class of g in SG or SG(Kf). It is easy to check that ι is well defined on H∗(SG(Kf),M) under this definition. The duality between Ω∗(SG(Kf)) and C∗(Kf) implies that this action coincides with the one defined by functoriality.
3.2 twisted action on finite slope cohomology
We need a lemma on the slope decomposition of compact projective Frechet spaces according to compact operators.
Lemma 3.2.1
Let A be a Qp-Banach algebra, M a compact projective
Frechet A-module, and f a compact A-linear operator of M.
Then the Fredholm determinant R(f,X) of f is entire over A. If R(f,X)=Q(X)S(X) over A, such that Q and S are relatively prime and Q is a Fredholm polynomial with invertible leading
coefficient, then there is a decomposition of M:
[TABLE]
into f-stable close submodules satisfing:
(a)
Q∗(f)* annihilates Nf(Q) and is invertible on Ff(Q);*
(b)
the projector on Nf(Q) is given by EQ(f) with
EQ(X)∈XA{{X}} whose coefficients are polynomials in the coefficients of Q and S.
Moreover, if A is semi-simple, then Nf(Q) is of finite rank,
and the characteristic polynomial of f on Nf(Q) is Q. In particular, for h∈Q≥0, we may choose Q(x) such that Nf(Q)=M≤h, the ≤h-slope decomposition of M.
Proof
The lemma is known if M is a projective Banach module by Serre Serre and Coleman Coleman . Now M is a projective compact Frechet space, there are projective A-Banach modules Mn with compact operators fn, such that
[TABLE]
with fn=f∣Mn. Now R(f,X)=det(1−Xf∣Mn) for n sufficiently large, so R(f,X)=Q(X)S(X) gives the expected decomposition Mn=Nn,f(Q)⊕Fn,f(Q). Let pn be the projector of Mn onto Nn,f(Q), by (Buzzard eigenvarieties, , Theorem 3.3), there is a power series ϕ∈A[[T]] depending only on Q, such that pn=ϕ(fn). Moreover, Nn,f(Q) and Fn,f(Q) are given by the image and kernel of pn respectively. Denote by un+1,n the transation map from Mn+1 to Mn. By definition, we have a commutative diagram:
[TABLE]
Taking projective limit, we have a projector p=limϕ(fn) on M and the decomposition M=Nf(Q)⊕Ff(Q). Indeed, by the definition of compact operator, Nn,f(Q) are isomorphic for n sufficiently large. So the last statement follows.
Now consider f=fp⊗ut∈RS,p admissible. Then f defines a compact operator on the complex RΓ(Kf,Dλ(L)). For given h∈Q≥0, we define the ≤h-slope part of H∗(SG(KpI),Dλ(L)) with respect to f as in (Urban, , §2). Then the finite slope part of H∗(SG(KpI),Dλ(L)) is defined by:
[TABLE]
Since RS,p is in the center of Hp(Kp), Hfs∗(SG(KpI),Dλ(L)) is independent of f, and endowed with the ∗-action of Hp(Kp). We also define
[TABLE]
Proposition 3.2.2
Assume λ∈Xι. The ∗-action of Hp(Kp) on the finite slope cphomology Hfs∗(SG(KpI),Dλ(L)) extends to an action of ιHp(Kp). Therefore the action of Hp on Hfs∗(S~G,Dλ(L)) extends to an action of ιHp.
Proof
We only have to prove the first statement. For this we need the next result from (Urban, , lemma 2.3.2):
Lemma 3.2.3
Let M, M′ be two L-Banach (or Frechet ) spaces, u and u′ endomorphism of M and M′, and M=Mu≤h⊕M1 and M′=M′u′≤h⊕M1′ their ≤h-slope decompositions respectively. Assume f is a continuous linear map from M to M′ such that f∘u=u′∘f, then f respects the slope decompositions.
Since ι×f=fι×ι, by the lemma,
[TABLE]
is well defined. Let l be the order of ι, define
[TABLE]
Then
[TABLE]
Since the finite slope part is independent of f, we prove the proposition by taking the inductive limit.
3.3 ι-invariant finite slope representations
In this section, we introduce the ι-invariant finite slope automorphic representations, which are the main objects we concern in this paper. We first recall a well-known result for admissible representations of a locally profinite group. Let G be a locally profinite group, and K an open compact subgroup of G. Write H(G) the Hecke algebra of compact supported smooth functions of G and H(G,K) its subalgebra of K bi-invariant functions. Then
Proposition 3.3.1
The map π↦πK gives a bijection between equivalence classes of irreducible smooth representations (π,V) of H(G) such that VK=0 and equivalence classes of irreducible H(G,K)-representations.
3.3.2 Finite slope representations
let (π,V) be an irreducible representation of Hp defined over a p-adic field L. We say π is admissible overconvergent of weight λ∈X(L) if it is admissible and a subqoutient of Hq(S~G,Dλ(L)). Since π is admissible, that for any Kp, an element in Hp(Kp) acts on V as an endomorphism of finite rank. By the fact that Hp=limKpHp(Kp), there is a well-defined trace map:
[TABLE]
for any f∈Hp. We say π is of level Kp if πKp as a representation of Hp(Kp) is not trivial. Let σ be an irreducible representation of Hp(Kp). We say σ is overconvergent of level Kp and weight λ if it is of the form πKp for some admissible overconvergent π with level Kp and weight λ. Then σ is finite dimensional and can be realized in the cohomology space Hq(SG(KpI),Dλ(L)). For fixed Kp, the Hecke algebra RS,p is included in the center of Hp. So the restriction of σ to RS,p is a character, which is denoted by θσ. We call θσ an overconvergent Hecke eigensystem of level Kp and weight λ. For such θ, obviously Hq(SG(KpI),Dλ(L))[θ]=0.
Let θ be a Qp-valued character of Up. To recall the definition of the slope of θ, we assume at the moment that G is split at p (refer (Urban, , §4.1.2) for general situation). If θ(ut)=0 for some t∈T+, then we say that θ is of infinite slope. Otherwise, we say θ is of finite slope. It is easy to check that θ is of finite slope if and only if there is t∈T++ such that θ(ut)=0. In this case, θ induces a homomorphism from T(Qp)/T(Zp) to Qp×. We then define the slope of θ to be the element μθ∈X∗(T/Qp), such that for any μ∨∈X∗(T/Qp)+
[TABLE]
Now we define the slope of an overconvergent Hecke eigensystem θ as the slope of its restriction to Up. For a overconvergent representation π or σ, define its slope as the slope of the overconvergent Hecke eigensystem associated to it. It is easy to see, π, σ or θ is of finite slope if and only if it is realized in Hfsq(SG,Dλ(L)). Moreover, for any μ∈X∗(T/Qp), we define
[TABLE]
It is easy to see that
[TABLE]
Let θ be a Qp-valued character of Up and λ an algebraic weight. We say that θ is non-critical with respect to λ, if its slope μθ is. This means that for any w=id in WG, the Weyl group of G, μθ∈/w⋅λ−λ+X∗(T)+.
3.3.3 ι-invariant finite slope representations
Let ρ be a finite slope overconvergent representation of H, where H can be Hp, Hp(Kp) or RS,p. We denote by ρι the ι-twist of ρ, that is, the representation of H on Vρ, which sends f∈H to ρι(f):=ρ(fι). We say ρ is ι-invariant if ρι≅ρ. By (BLS, , Appendix), ρ is ι-invariant if and only if it can be extended to ιH. Indeed, if ρι≅ρ, then there is a linear operator A:Vρ→Vρ of order l such that A∘ρ=ρ∘A. One can extend ρ by setting ιi acting on Vσ via Ai. Generally, we use capital letters Π, Σ and Θ for an representation of ιHp, ιHp(Kp) and ιRS,p respectively. The next lemma summarizes results in (BLS, , Appendix) :
Lemma 3.3.4
Notations as above
(a)
Assume Σ (resp. Π, Θ) is irreducible, then its restriction to Hp(Kp) (resp. Hp, RS,p) is irreducible if and only if the trace of Σ (resp. Π, Θ) is not trivial on ι×Hp(Kp) (resp. ι×Hp, ι×RS,p).
(b)
Assume σ (resp. π, θ ) is irreducible ι-invariant, then there are exactly l extensions of σ (resp. π, θ) to ιHp(kp) (resp. ιHp, ιRS,p), say σ~1,…,σ~l (resp. π~1,…,π~l, θ~1,…,θ~l). Each two of them are differed by a character of order l and are non-isomorphic.
Remark 4
By Proposition 3.3.1, if σ=πKP, we can assume that
[TABLE]
Throughout this paper, we make this convention.
Let σ~ be a representation of ιHp(Kp) which extends a ι-invariant overconvergent representation σ of Hp(Kp). We write
[TABLE]
Last lemma tells that Jσ~ is not trivial. It is also easy to see the Hecke eigensystem θσ satisfies
[TABLE]
for any f∈RS,p. We say such a Hecke eigensystem ι-invariant. Let θ~σ~ be the restriction of σ~ to ιRS,p. Since ι is of finite order and θ~σ~ is finite dimensional, that θ~σ~ is diagonalizable under ι. So θ~σ~ is a direct sum of one dimensional representations of ιRS,p, which must be of the form (θσ)~i. So we have
[TABLE]
where, m((θσ)~i,θ~σ~) is the multiplicity of (θσ)~i in θ~σ~,
[TABLE]
If f∈RS,p, then
[TABLE]
Since ι is of finite order, all its eigenvaules must be p-adic units. We remark here a simple but important observation that
[TABLE]
Let θ be a finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystem with slope μθ. It is easy to check that
[TABLE]
So we conclude:
Lemma 3.3.5
If a finite slope overconvergent representation (resp. Hecke eigensystem) is ι-invariant, then its slope μθ is ι-invariant.
3.3.6 classicity
Now we state a twisted analogue to (Urban, , proposition 4.3.10), which is the classicity theorem in the cohomological setting. For a dominant weight λ∈X∗(T) and t∈T+, define
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
Proposition 3.3.7
Let λ=λalgϵ be an arithmetic weight of conductor pnλ, and μ a slope which is non-critical with respect to λalg. Then for any positive integer m⩾nλ, we have the canonical isomorphism
[TABLE]
Similarly, with respect to f=fp⊗ut with t∈T++, for any h⩽vp(Nι(λ,t)),
[TABLE]
Here Vλalg∨(L,ϵ):=(Vλalg(L)(ϵ))∨.
The proof is same to (Urban, , proposition 4.3.10).
3.3.8 spectral expansion of twisted overconvergent traces
Proposition 3.3.9
Let λ∈Xι(L). For any ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent representation π of Hp, there are l integers {miq(π,λ)}i=il, such that for all f∈Hp′,
[TABLE]
Proof
Since f is admissible, the trace is convergent. Fix t∈T++, for any h∈Q≥0, consider the ι-stable ≤h-slope part Hq(S~G,Dλ(L))ι≤h of Hfsq(S~G,Dλ(L)) with respect to ut. Here we define
[TABLE]
It is equipped with an admissible ∗-action of Hp since ut is in the center of Hp. As the proof of Proposition 3.2.2, this action extends to ιHp.
Let (π,V) be a finite slope overconvergent Hp-submodule of Hq(S~G,Dλ(L))ι⩽h, and ι∗(V) its image under the ∗-action of ι. Consider the next three sets of finite slope overconvergent representations A,B and C whose elements are counted with multiplicity: A={π∣ι∗(Vπ)=Vπ}, B={π∣πι≅π,ι∗(Vπ)∩Vπ=∅} and C={π∣πι≆π}.
If π∈B or C, write
[TABLE]
as a ιHp-submodule of Hq(S~G,Dλ(L))ι≤h. Then ι∗ permutes the components of Wπ, and tr(ι×f∣Wσ) is trivial. If π∈A (this implies that σ is ι-invariant), then Vπ itself is an irreducible ιHp-submodule of Hq(S~G,Dλ(L))ι⩽h. In particular, Vπ=π~i for some i. Now for any ι-invariant π, let mi,hq(π,λ) be the mulitplicity of π~i appearing in A. We have
[TABLE]
Let h go to infinite, the multiplicity mi,hq converges to some miq∈Z, and the proposition follows.
Remark 5
If G admits multiplicity one theorem, then B=∅ in the proof above (otherwise, since σ is self-dual, that Vσ≅Vσι≅Vσ∗ι would appear with multiplicitiy at least two).
4 TWISTED FRANKE’S TRACE FORMULA
In this section, we prove a twisted version of Franke’s trace formula (Franke, , §7.7). In order to do so we review some results of Franke first.
4.1 Notation
Let G be a quasi-split connected reductive group. We fix a minimal parabolic subgroup P0 of G containing B and write its Langlands decomposition P0=M0A0N0. Generally, for a standard parabolic subgroup P of G, we consider its Langlands decomposition P=MPAPNP such that AP⊂A0 and M0⊂MP, where LP=MPAP is the standard Levi subgroup of P and AP is a maximal spit torus in the center of LP. In particular, A0=T. Write aˇP=X∗(P)⊗R and aˇPG its subspace of elements whose restriction to AG are trivial. If P=P0, we denote aˇ0G:=aˇP0G. We let aˇ0G+⊂aˇ0G be the open positive Weyl chamber, and +aˇ0G the open positive cone dual to it.
Let g be the Lie algebra of G∞, mG⊂g the intersection of kernals for all rational characters of G, and Z(mG) the center of the universal enveloping algebra of mG. For any standard parabolic subgroup P, define the height function HP:P(A)→aP such that for any x∈P(A) and any character ξ of P,
[TABLE]
We also consider HP as a function on G by the Iwasawa decomposition. Let Vλ∨ be as in the last section. Assume AG acts on Vλ∨ by a character ξλ, let Iλ⊂Z(mG) be the annihilator of ξλ. For any G(Af)-module M and μ∈aˇG, we denote by M(μ) the twist of M in which the action of g∈G(Af) on M is multiplied by the factor e⟨μ,HG(g)⟩.
Let R=RG (resp.R+=RG+, Δ=ΔG ) be the set of roots (resp. positive roots, simple positive roots ) with respect to the Borel pair (B,T). If L is a Levi subgroups of G, let ρL be the half sum of all positive roots of L with respect to T, in particular, write ρ=ρG. For a parabolic subgroup P, let ρP∈aˇPG be the half sum of all the positive roots of P in NP. For parabolic subgroups P⊂Q, there is a natural projection X∗(T)+⊗R→aˇPG→aˇQG, under which the images of ρG are ρP and ρQ. Let WG be the Weyl group of G and fix w0G∈WG a longest element. We define
where n is the Lie algebra of N∞, n=dim(n) and VμL is the finite dimensional irreducible algebraic representation of L with highest weight μ. Define
[TABLE]
If λ is regular and w∈WEisL, then the Eisenstein series associated to a class in H∗(SL,Vw⋅λL,∨) defines an Eisenstein class in H∗(SG,Vλ∨).
4.2 The Eisenstein spectral sequence
Let VG=Cumg∞(G(Q)A(R)0\G(A)) be the space of C∞-functions of uniform moderate growth, and Rg the natural right translation action of g∈G(A) on VG. Let Aλ be the subspace of VG consisting of the functions which are annihilated by some power of Iλ. One is interested in the cohomology group
[TABLE]
In Franke , Franke proved that it can be computed by (mG,K∞) cohomology with coefficients in Aλ as
[TABLE]
Indeed, Franke proved that last cohomology space can be computed as the limit of a spectral sequence which is compiled via the Laurent coefficients of Eisenstein series.
let C:=CG be the set of clases of associate parabolic Q-subgroups of G. For {P}∈CG, let VG({P}) be the subspace of VG consists of functions which are negligible along all Q∈/{P}, that is, the space of functions ϕ∈VG, such that for every parabolic subgroup Q∈/{P} and every g∈AQ(A)K, RgϕNQ is orthogonal to the space of cuspidal functions on LQ(Q)\LQ(A)1, where ϕNQ is the constant term of ϕ along NQ, defined by
[TABLE]
with respect to the normalized Haar measure:
[TABLE]
Set Aλ,{P}:=Aλ∩VG({P}), then as (g,K∞,G(Af))-modules,
[TABLE]
and the cohomology (\reforiginal) equals
[TABLE]
For each {P}, there is a descending filtration (of finite length) Aλ,{P}T,p on the space Aλ,{P}. This filtration depends on a finite supported Z-valued function T which is defined on the closure aˇ0+, such that:
(T)
T(μ)<T(ν) if μ=ν and ν∈μ−+aˇ0.
The successive quotients Aλ,{P}T,p/Aλ,{P}T,p+1 can be described in term of Eisenstein series. Following (Franke, , §6), define Mλ,{P}T,p to be the set of triples t=(P,Λ,χ):=(Pt,Λt,χt) with the following properties:
(a)
P∈{P} is a standard parabolic subgroup;
(b)
Λ:AP(A)/A(R)0AP(Q)→C× is a continuous character. Let λt∈(aˇPG)C be the differential of the archimedean component of Λ, we assume Re(λt)∈aˇP+ and T(Re(λt))=p.
(c)
χ:Z(mG):→C× is a character.
(d)
λt∈suppt(Iλ), i.e. for any x∈Iλ, ξ(x)(λt+χt)=0, where ξ:Z(m)G→S(t∩mG)WG is the Harish-Chandra isomorphism.
For t,t′∈Mλ,{P}T,p, define a morphism from t to t′ to be an element of the Weyl set Ω(at,at′) which maps Λt to Λt′ and χt to χt′. So Mλ,{P}T,p is a groupoid. Let Cλ,{P}T,p be a set of representatives for the isomorphism classes of objects of Mλ,{P}T,p.
For t∈Mλ,{P}T,p, define V(t) to be the space of square integrable K∩P(A)-finite functions f on P(Q)AP(R)0NP(A)\P(A) with the following properties
(a)
For any parabolic subgroup Q⊊P, fNP is orthogonal to the space of cuspidal forms on MQ(Q)\MQ(A).
(b)
f(ag)=e−⟨λt,HP(a)⟩Λ(a)f(g) for any a∈AP(A).
(c)
f is a χ-eigenvector of Z(mG).
We let W(t)=IndPGV(t) be the space of K-finite functions on the space P(Q)AP(R)0NP(A)\G(A) such that for any g∈G(A), the function f(xg) of x∈P(Q)AP(R)0NP(A)\P(A) belongs to V(t).
Let S(t) be the symmetric algebra S((aˇPG)C), which is the space of polynomials on (aPG)C, and also viewed as the algebra of finite sums of iterated derivatives at λt. S(t) is equipped with the structure of aP-module defined by the rule:
(A)
For ξ∈aP, δ∈S(t) and any η∈aPG
[TABLE]
It is then extended to a p-module structure by letting m and n act trivially. S(t) is also equipped with a P(Af)-module structure by the rule:
(B)
For any x∈P(Af) and η∈aPG
[TABLE]
So we get a functor from the groupoid Mλ,{P}T,p to the category of (g,K∞,G(Af))-modules, it assigns to t a module
[TABLE]
For f∈W(t) and μ∈(aˇPG)C, define the Eisenstein series
[TABLE]
Moreover, for f⊗δ∈W(t)⊗S(t), let MWδE(f,μ)∈VG({P}) be the main value of the Laurent expansion of δE(f,μ) at λ∞ (refer (Franke, , §6)). For {P}∈C, let C({P})⊂C be the subset defined by the property:
(P)
{Q}∈C({P}), if there is a parabolic Q∈{Q} such that Q contains some parabolic subgroup in {P}.
(Franke, , Theorem 14) implies that the quotient Aλ,{P}T,p/Aλ,{P}T,p+1 is spanned by the main values MWδE(f,μ) for all f⊗δ in M(t) when t is running over all Mλ,{Q}T,p and {Q} in C({P}).
We now state Franke’s theorem ((Franke, , Theorem 19)) which gives a spectral squence to compute the cohomology space (4.2.1):
Using the notation of Franke , for any Θ∈aˇt, let CΘ be the one dimensional vector space C on which x∈at acts by muliplication of e⟨x,Θ⟩. Twisting Vw(λ+ρPt)+ρPtL,∨⊗V(t) by a proper CΘ to make it a trivial at-module, we apply Ku¨nneth theorem for each summand in last equation with respect to l=m+a. Then a standard computation shows that
[TABLE]
where Wjt is the subset of w∈WL, such that l(w)=n−j and the natual projection of w(λ+ρPt) to aˇPtG is λt. Combing all the results above, for λ regular, the E1-term, E1p,q, of (ESS) can be computed by
[TABLE]
Now Franke’s theorem implies Hr(SG,Vλ∨(C))(ξλ−1) equals:
[TABLE]
where Wt is the subset of w∈WL, such that the natual projection of w(λ+ρPt) to aˇPtG is λt.
4.3 Twisted Franke’s trace formula
Let λ∈X∗(T) be a regular dominant ι-invariant weight, f∈Hp⊂Cc∞(G(Af)) an admissible p-adic Hecke operator. In this section, we use (4.2.15) to compute the alternating trace
[TABLE]
The alternating trace tr(f∣H∗(SG,Vλ∨(C))) without twisting was computed by Franke and Urban in (Franke, , §7.7) and (Urban, , Theorem 1.4.2). Here we have to study how ι acts on each step from (4.2.5) to (4.2.15).
4.3.1 ι-action on (mG,K∞)-cohomology
Consider the complex
[TABLE]
which computes the (mG,K∞)-cohomology H∗(mG,K∞;VG⊗Vλ∨(C)). Let ι∗:mG→mG be the push-forward map induced from ι:G(R)→G(R). Define ι:VG→VG by sending φ to φι, such that for any [g]∈SG, φι([g])=φ([g]ι). Now ι acts on HomK∞(∧q(mG/k∞),VG⊗Vλ∨(C)) by sending ϕ to ϕι, such that
[TABLE]
for any X∈∧q(mG/k∞). It is easy to check that the action is well defined up to homotopy.
Let α:C∗(mG,K∞;Vλ∨(C))→Ω∗(SG,Vλ∨(C)) be the morphism of complexes which induces Hq(mG,K∞;VG⊗Vλ∨(C))≅Hq(SG,Vλ∨(C)). Concretely, for ϕ∈Cq(mG,K∞;Vλ∨(C)), α assigns it a q-th differential form τϕ, such that for any g∈G(A)1,
[TABLE]
where vˉ indicates a left invariant vector field on SG and vˉ([e]) its value at [e]∈SG. Since ϕ(vˉ1([e]),⋯,vˉq([e]))∈VG⊗Vλ∨(C), ϕ(vˉ1([e]),⋯,vˉq([e]))([g]) means to evaluate its first component at [g]. Compare with §3.1.7, it is easy to check that the ι-action on Hq(mG,K∞;VG⊗Vλ∨(C)) is compatible with the ι-action on Hq(SG,Vλ∨(C)) defined in §3.1.
4.3.2 image of Aλ,{P} under ι
Apparently that Aλ is stable under ι, we now study the behavior of decomposition (4.2.5) under ι. Let Aλ,{P}ι be the image of Aλ,{P} under ι. Given an associate class {P}, let {Pι} be the class whose elements are Pι for all P∈{P}. Apparently the map {P}↦{Pι} permutes the assoicate classes, let {P}ι:={Pι}.
Lemma 4.3.3
[TABLE]
Proof
Given ϕ∈Aλ,{P}, we have to show that, for any parabolic Q∈/{Pι−1} and g∈AQ(A)K, Rg(ϕι)NQ⊥Lcusp2(LQ(Q)\LQ(A)1). Let dnQ be the normalized Haar measure on NQ, then dnQι is same to the Haar measure on NQι=NQι induced by the map ι:NQ→NQι=NQι. Now a direct computation shows that
[TABLE]
Then gι∈AQι(A)K, and
[TABLE]
Noting that the restriction of ι on Lcusp2(LQ(Q)\LQ(A)1) identify its image with Lcusp2(LQι−1(Q)\LQι−1(A)1), we have
[TABLE]
Now the conclusion follows.
This lemma implies that, in the formula (4.2.15), only those summand parameterized by {P}={P}ι will contribute to the twisted trace.
4.3.4 on Eisenstein series
Consider an associate class {P} and t=(P,Λ,χ)∈Mλ,{P}T,p for some p. For φ∈W(t) and μ∈(aˇPG)C, let Et(φ,μ)(g):=E(φ,μ)(g) be the Eisenstein series defined in (4.2.10), then Aλ is spanned by the principal values of derivatives of all such E(φ,μ).
Lemma 4.3.5
[TABLE]
where we define
(a)
Λι−1:APι−1(A)/A(R)0APι−1(Q)→C×* as Λι−1(a):=Λ(aι);*
(b)
χι−1:mG→C×* as χι−1(x):=χ(xι);*
(c)
tι:=(Pι−1,Λι−1,χι−1)**
(d)
φι(g):=φ(gι). Then φι∈W(tι).
(e)
μι−1∈(aˇPι−1G)C, as a character, it is defined by μι−1(a):=μ(aι). In particular, it induces a homomorphism ι:S((aˇPG)C)→S((aˇPι−1G)C).
So we have a homomorphism between vector spaces
[TABLE]
such that for φ⊗δ∈M(t)=W(t)⊗S(t)
[TABLE]
Moreover, ι induces an homomorphism between the (mG,K∞)-cohomology group,
[TABLE]
Proof
(4.3.9) and (4.3.11) are from definition directly. To show (4.3.12), one only has to notice that ι is compatible with (4.3.3).
Remark 6
The definition of MWλt actually depends on the choice of a regular element ξt∈aˇPG, so here (4.3.11) depends on the choice ξtι=ξtι−1. However, just as the situation in Franke , it does not matter our goal.
Recall that the quotient Aλ,{P}T,p/Aλ,{P}T,p+1 is spanned by the elements of the form MWλtδE(f,μ). As observed by Franke and Schwermer in FS , the only relations between these vectors are the relations provided by the functional equation of the Eisenstein series for singular λt. So if t≅tι in ∪pMλ,{P}T,p, then the image of H∗(mG,K∞;M(t)⊗Vλ∨(C)) and H∗(mG,K∞;M(tι)⊗Vλ∨(C)) in H∗(mG,K∞;Aλ,{P}⊗Vλ∨(C)) coincide. This implies that, in the first step of (4.2.15), only those terms with t≅tι will contribute to the twisted trace.
4.3.6
For a standard parabolic subgroup P and the associate class {P} containing P, consider a triple (P,μ,χ)∈Mλ,{P}T,T(μ), and let nP(μ) be the cardinality of the isomorphism class containing (P,μ,χ). nP(μ) is the number of Weyl chambres to which μ belongs, in particular, if μ is regular, then nP(μ)=1. Define:
[TABLE]
Υ is dense in aˇ0. From now on, assume that
(R)
λ∈Υ.
With assumption (R), Wt=∅ for any t∈Mλ,{P}T,p, unless λt is regular. In particular, in the alternating trace (4.3.1), only those t with λt regular will contribute to the trace. In this case, np(λt)=1, and t≅tι⇔t=tι.
Combing the discussion in last several sections, we compute (4.3.1) =
[TABLE]
where, on the right side of this equation, t=(P,Λ,χ), μ is the differential of the Archimedean part of Λ and P=LN=MAN the Langlands decomposition. For a Levi subgroup L, fL is defined by
[TABLE]
where the Haar measures are normalized with respect to the Iwasawa decomposition as in (Franke, , §7.7). The twisting factor appears in (4.3.15) since we have twisted the character ξλ in the (mG,K∞)-cohomology. The twisting term CρP+μ disappears, since as a aP-module it does not contrube to the trace. Now combing all χ and all the finite parts Λf of Λ in the summation, by the definition (a) of V(t), (4.3.14) equals
[TABLE]
4.3.7
Now we study the action of ι on the direct sum over Weyl elements in last formula. For every φ∈Vw(λ+ρP)+ρPL(C)⊂C(LP(Q)\LP(A)), φι(x)=φ(xι−1). It is easy to check that
[TABLE]
Lemma 4.3.8
Group G and operator ι as before, ι acts on the Weyl group W=NG(T)/T via [x]↦[xι] for any x∈NG(T). Then
(1)
Let Sα be a simple reflection in W corresponding to a simple root α, then (Sα)ι=Sαι. In particular, ι preserves the length of a Weyl element.
(2)
For any w∈W, (w(α))ι=wι(αι).
(3)
Let P∈P, then ρPι=ρP.
In particular
[TABLE]
Moreover, if λ is regular, (Vw(λ+ρP)+ρPL(C))ι=Vw(λ+ρP)+ρPL(C) if and only if wι=w.
Proof
The proof is straightforward. Concretely speaking, (1) follows from the fact that Sα is the only nontrivial element in NGα(T)/T (see, e.g. (Milne, , IV)) and (Sα)ι is a non-trivial element in NGαι(T)/T. (2) follows from a direct computation: let [x] be a representative of w, for any t∈T, (w(α))ι(t)=w(α)(tι−1)=α(x−1tι−1x) and wι(αι)(t)=αι((xι)−1txι)=α(x−1tι−1x). (3) follows from the definition that ρP(t):=det(Ad(t)∣nP)1/2(see, e.g. (BW, , III)) and the commutative diagram ad(t)∘ι=ι∘ad(tι). Finally, one deduces (4.3.18) from (1)−(3) directly.
Now let Wt,ι be the subset of Wt consisting of elements which are invariant under ι. Apply the lemma, (4.3.16) equals
[TABLE]
Recall that for any w∈Wt, w(λ+ρ)=μ. So when μ is running over all classes t∈Mλ,{P}T, w is running over WEisL. Let WEisL,ι be the subset of WEisL consisting of elements which are invariant under ι, the previous formula equals:
[TABLE]
where the equality holds since for λ∈Υ, w(λ+ρP)+ρP is regular.
Finally, combing all the computation above, it is easy to deduces:
Assume λ is regular in Υ, then for any f∈Cc∞(G(Af)),
[TABLE]
where the notation st indicates that we are using the standard Hecke action.
4.4 Cuspidal decomposition formula
Let λ=λalgϵ be an arithmetic regular dominant weight in Xι, define
[TABLE]
where ∗ indicates that we are using the ∗-action defined in Section 3.1.
Lemma 4.4.1
Assume f=fp⊗ut∈Hp′, then
[TABLE]
Just like (Urban, , 4.5.1 (29)), this is a direct consequence of (3.1.9) and (Urban, , Lemma 4.3.8).
For any f∈Hp, define the classical cuspidal alternating twisted trace by:
[TABLE]
if f∈Hp(Kp). This is well defined since ι is well defined on the cuspidal cohomology.
For any w∈WL, f∈Hp(G), define fL,wreg∈Hp(L) as below. For f=fp⊗ut∈Hp(G), define:
[TABLE]
where the factor ϵξ,w(t):=ξ(t)w−1(ρP)+ρP∣tw−1(ρP)+ρP∣p, which is trivial according to our choice of ξ as (2.1.14), (fp)L′ is the usual non-normalized constant term
[TABLE]
For general f, the definition is given by linear extension.
Theorem 4.4.2
Let λ arithmetic and regular such that λalg∈Υ, then for any f as above, IGcl(ι×f,λ) equals
[TABLE]
Proof
The proof is essentially same to (Urban, , Lemma 4.6.2). Since both sides of the equation are linear on f, it is innocuous to assume that f=fp⊗ut and fp=1Kp. If λ=λalgε, the finite order character ε simply appears in every step of the proof by multipling a twisting factor, so we only have to deal with the case that λ=λalg algebraic. By the twisted Franke’s trace formula and lemma 4.4.1, IGcl(ι×f,λ) equals:
[TABLE]
For group H=L,N or P, write KHp:=Kp∩H(Afp). Then for f=1Kp⊗ut, we have
Write μ:=v⋅λ+2ρP and σμ:=Hcusp∗(SL,VμL,∨(C))KLp. Since ι is well defined on σμ, viewing IndP(Qp)G(Qp)σμ as the restriction of IndP(Qp)⋊⟨ι⟩G(Qp)⋊⟨ι⟩σμ to G(Qp), we have
[TABLE]
According to the decomposition
[TABLE]
there is
[TABLE]
where the isomorphism is given by ϕ↦(ϕ(w))w∈WL. In particular, ι acts on the right side by sending (ϕ(w)) to (ϕ(wι)). Let WL,ι be the subset of WL consisting of elements which are invariant under ι. Write Nw:=N∩w−1Nw and IL:=I∩L(Qp)=wIw−1∩L(Qp), (4.4.8) equals
[TABLE]
Noting that
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
(4.4.12) equals
[TABLE]
Here in the last two equations, we used (2.1.14) again and substituted μ=v⋅λ+2ρP. This completes the proof.
5 TWISTED FINITE SLOPE CHARACTER DISTRIBUTIONS
5.1 twisted finite slope character distributions
In this section, we define the notion of twisted finite slope character distribution, which is a twisted version of Urban’s finite slope character distributions in (Urban, , §4.1.10).
Definition 5.1.1
Let ι be an automorphism of G with finite order l, L a finite extension of Qp in Qp. An L-valued ι-twisted finite slope character distribution (ι-twisted FSCD) is a Qp-linear map J:Hp′→L, such that for any ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent representation π of Hp, there is a set of l integers mˉJ(π):={mJ,i(π)∣i=1,…,l}, satisfying:
(1)
for any t∈T++, h∈Q and Kp, there are finitely many π of slope ⩽h and such that mˉJ(π)=0, πKp=0.
(2)
for any f∈Hp′,
[TABLE]
For any irreducible ι-invariant finite slope representation π, we define the multiplicity of π in J by
[TABLE]
We say J is effective if it is non-trivial and all its coefficients mJ,i(π) are non-negative. Given a twisted FSCD J, for any f∈Hp′, define the Fredholm determinant of f associated to J by
[TABLE]
As (Urban, , Lemma 4.1.12), PJ(X,f) is an entire power series for all f=fp⊗ut∈Hp′, if and only if J is effective.
If J is effective, for any ι-invariant Kp, define VJ(Kp) to be the completion of
[TABLE]
under the super norm ∥∑ivi∥:=supi∥vi∥. It is a p-adic Banach space over Cp with an action of ιHp(Kp) such that an element f in Hp′(Kp) acting completely continuously and
[TABLE]
This observation leads us to give the next definition:
Definition 5.1.2
Fix Kp, an L-valued ι-twisted finite slope character distribution of level Kp is a Qp-linear map J′:Hp′(Kp)→L, such that for any ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent representation σ of Hp(Kp), there is a set of l integers mˉJ′(σ):={mJ′,i(σ)∣i=1,…,l}, satisfying:
(1)
for any t∈T++ and h∈Q, there are finitely many σ of slope ⩽h and such that mˉJ′(σ)=0.
(2)
for any f∈Hp′(Kp),
[TABLE]
Lemma 5.1.3
If J is twisted finite slope character distribution, then JKp′:=meas(Kp)−1J is a twisted finite slope character distribution of level Kp.
Proof
Let π be a ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent representation of Hp and π~ an extension of π to ιHp. Since Kp is ι-invariant, for f∈Hp(Kp),
[TABLE]
(if π~Kp=0, both sides are [math]). Let σ~ be an irreducible constitute of ιHp(Kp) acting on π~Kp. If the restriction of σ~ on Hp(Kp) is reducible, by Lemma 3.3.4, tr(ι×f∣σ~)=0. So we have
[TABLE]
In the first equality, the sum of σ~ is running over all irreducible constitute of ιHp(Kp) in π~Kp and m(σ~,π~Kp) is its multiplicity, which equals 1 by Proposition 3.3.1; in the second equality, the sum of σ is running over all irreducible constitute of Hp(Kp) in πKp such that σ is ι-invariant and m(σ~j,π~Kp) the multiplicities of σ~j in π~Kp, which are all [math] except for one j. Now
[TABLE]
This verifies the condition (2) in the definition. Condition (1) is a direct consequence of Definition 5.1.1 (1).
Corollary 5.1.4
If σ=πKp is a finite slope overconvergent representation of Hp(Kp), then
[TABLE]
Similarly, we define the Fredholm determinant for any f∈Hp′ associated to J′ by
[TABLE]
We say that J′ is effective if it is non-trivial and all its coefficients mJ′,i(σ) are non-negative. In this case, we define VJ′ as completion of
[TABLE]
under the super norm ∥∑ivi∥. Then
[TABLE]
If J′=JKp′ for some effective J, then it is obvious that J′ is effective, VJ′=VJ(Kp) and for any f∈Hp′(Kp)
[TABLE]
5.2 Some ι-twisted distributions
For λ∈Xι(L) and f∈Hp, define
[TABLE]
If f∈Hp(Kp), then
[TABLE]
We also write
[TABLE]
Let PGι (resp.LGι) be the set of standard parabolic (resp. Levi) subgroups which are invariant under ι. For L∈LGι and w∈WEisL,ι, we define distributions IG,0†(ι×f,λ) and IG,L,w†(ι×f,λ) by induction on the unipotent rank of G:
If rk(G)=0, define
[TABLE]
Given a positive integer r and assume the distributions have been defined for cases that rk(G) is less than r, then for proper L∈LGι and f=fp⊗ut, define
[TABLE]
for regular dominant weight λ∈Υ. For general p-adic weight, define
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
and then define:
[TABLE]
Proposition 5.2.1
For ?=L,{L,w} or [math], IG,?†(ι×f,λ) is a ι-twisted FSCD.
Proof
For L∈LGι, let σL be an irreducible finite slope representation of HpL, define
[TABLE]
where indL(Afp)G(Afp) is the normalized induction by multipling the factor e⟨ρP,HP(g)⟩, θσ,w is the character of Up defined by
[TABLE]
If σL is ι-invariant, let σ~iL be one of its irreducible extensions to ιHpL. It is easy to see
[TABLE]
So by the induction process in the definition above, one only has to show the proposition for IG†(ι×f,λ). This follows from proposition 3.3.9.
5.2.2 Classical distributions
The distributions I?† defined above will be p-adic interpolations of the classical distributions I?cl, which are defined from traces on classical cohomology groups. For an arithmetic regular dominant weight λ∈Υ and f∈Hp(Kp), we compute meas(Kp)−1IG,0cl(ι×f,λ)=
[TABLE]
where, like Proposition 3.3.9, the summation is running over all cuspidal representations π⊂Lcusp2(G(Q)\G(A),ξλ) such that πι=π. πfin is the Harish-Chandra module of π, i.e., the subspace of π consisting of smooth vectors that generate a finite dimensional vector space under K∞. mcusp(π) is the multiplicity of π in Lcusp2, that is,
[TABLE]
By Proposition 3.3.1, if πfI=0 then it is ι-invariant and irreducible as a Cc∞(I\G(Af)/I,Qp)-module. A constitute of πfI restricting on Hp gives a p-stabilization of πf, and there are only finitely many such p-stabilizations (see (Urban, , §4.1.9)). So
[TABLE]
where ρ is running over all irreducible Hp-submodules of πfI such that ρι=ρ, and m(ρ,πfI) is the multiplicity of ρ in πfI.
Now we compute the Lefschetz number
[TABLE]
The next theorem is easily deduced from Proposition 5.4, 5.5 and Theorem 5.6 in the original paper of Vogan and Zuckerman (VZ, , §5):
Theorem 5.2.3
Let π be a cuspidal representation (so it is essentially unitary) such that H∗(mG,K∞;π∞fin⊗Vλ∨(C))=0, then there exists a θ-stable parabolic subalgebra q=l+u such that
[TABLE]
and π∞ is of the form Aq(w0λ).
Moreover, one has
[TABLE]
To understand the theorem here we have to recall some notation from VZ as well. θ is a usual Cartan involution of G, which gives a Cartan decomposition
[TABLE]
For a θ-stable parabolic algebra q defined as in (VZ, , §2) and an admissible weight λ defined as in (VZ, , (5.1)), Aq(λ) is an irreducible g-module whose restriction on k contains a represntation μ(q,λ), which is the representation of K∞ of highest weight λ+2ρ(p∩u), as in (VZ, , Theorem 5.3). Here Rq=dim(p∩u).
Corollary 5.2.4
Assumptions as last theorem, if λ is regular, then u is maximal unipotent and q is Borel.
Proof
It’s a simple observation from the previous theorem. The fact that Vλ∨(C)/uVλ∨(C) is one dimensional implies that Vλ∨(C) can be realized in Indqg(χ) with some character χ of l whose restriction to t is −w0λ. However, since λ is regular, −w0λ is regular too. This means that −w0λ cannot be extended to a character of any Levi subgroup which contains T proporly (see e.g. (Jantzen, , §II.1.18, II.2.4)). So u is maximal unipotent and q is Borel.
The corollary implies that there are only finitely many cuspidal π such that H∗(mG,K∞;π∞fin⊗Vλ∨(C))=0, and their infinity parts π∞ are Ab(w0λ). Write R=Rb, then for each such π
[TABLE]
So we define qG,ι:=L(ι,π,λ) for any λ arithmetic regular dominant in Υ, it is an integer depends on G and ι only. In particular
[TABLE]
The discussion above together with (5.2.10) implies:
Proposition 5.2.5
Let λ be an arithmetic regular dominant weight in Υ. For ?=∅,{L,w} or [math], IG,?cl(ι×f,λ) is a ι-twisted finite slope character distributions.
Proof
We only have to show the representations appearing in the twisted traces are of finite slope. Let σ be an classical cuspidal representation of Hp(Kp), its p-component σp must be of dimension one. So for any f=fp⊗ut∈Hp(Kp)
[TABLE]
for some l-th root of unit ξ. Now as observed in §3.3.2, if σ is of infinite slope, θσ(ut)=0.
Proposition 5.2.6
The character distribution IG,0cl(ι×f,λ)=0 if and only if qG,ι=0. In this case, define eG,ι:=qG,ι−1, then eG,ιIG,0cl(ι×f,λ) is effective.
Proof
We only have to prove the first statement. The “only if” part is obvious. Noting that Up is commutative, ρp as in (5.5.6) must be a character θρ. So we only have to show that there exits a one dimensional subspace of πpI which is stable under ι. This is true, since πpI is finite dimensional and it is diagonalizable under ι.
Remark 7
In last proposition, we have to divide qG,ι to make sure that the distribution has integral coefficients. If ι is of order 2, the Lefschetz numbers are necessarily integral. In this case, we define eG,ι=sign(qG,ι). All the results and discussion will be same but the distribution carries more information.
Remark 8
Throughout this paper we assume that ι is of Cartan-type to make sure that the cuspidal cohomology is not always trivial ((BLS, , Theorem 10.6)). However, our results hold for any Q-rational, finite order automorphism such that the Lefschetz number is non-trivial.
Now for any Kp, write
[TABLE]
Corollary 5.2.7
[TABLE]
5.2.8 Congruence between overconvergent and classical distributions
Lemma 5.2.9
Let λ be a regular arithmetic weight and f=fp⊗ut∈Hp′(Kp)Zp-valued, then
[TABLE]
where Nι(λ,t) is defined in (\refNlambda).
Proof
Both sides of the congruence are mear(Kp)×Zp-valued by definition. Let h=vp(Nι(λ,t)). Noting that for any a∈Z and t∈T+,
[TABLE]
(\refob1) and the observation (\refob2) imply that
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
Then the lemma is obtained from Proposition 3.3.7.
Proposition 5.2.10
Let f=fp⊗ut∈Hp(Kp) be Zp-valued and λ regular arithmetic. Then
[TABLE]
Proof
We prove the proposition by induction on rk(G). The case rk(G)=0 is just the lemma 5.2.9 above. Now assume the proposition is proved for any proper Levi subgroup L∈LGι. Noting that Nι(λ,t) divides ξ(t)λ−w−1v∗λ if v=w, the cuspidal decomposition formula, Theorem 4.4.2 implies that, modulo Nι(λ,t)Meas(Kp), IG,0cl(ι×f,λ) is congruent to
[TABLE]
Now using the induction hypotheses and Lemma 5.2.9 again, it is congruent to
[TABLE]
which is, by definition, IG,0†(ι×f,λ).
Corollary 5.2.11
let {λn} be a highly regular sequence of ι-invariant dominant weights which converges p-adically to a weight λ∈Xι(L). Then for any f=fp⊗ut∈Hp′, there is
[TABLE]
for ?=∅,0.
5.3 Analyticity with respect to weight
Now we study IG,?†(ι×f,λ) as the weight λ varying over the weight space Xι. Let U be an open affinoid of Xι and O0(U) the ring of analytic functions on U bounded by 1. For any finite extension L of Qp in Qp, define
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
Proposition 5.3.1
Fix f∈Hp′(Kp), then as functions of λ∈Xι, IG†(ι×f,λ), IG,M,w†(ι×f,λ) and IG,0†(ι×f,λ) are all in ΛXι,Qp. In particular, they are analytic over Xι.
Proof
The proof is same to (Urban, , Theorem 4.7.3), so we only sketch it here. By the induction process in defining IG,?†(ι×f,λ), it suffices to prove the proposition for IG†(ι×f,λ). Locally over an open affinoid U⊂Xι, for n≥n(U), Lemma 2.2.3 and Proposition 2.3.4(a) imply that
[TABLE]
Therefore FU:=meas(Kp)tr(ι×f∣RΓ∗(KpI,DU,n(U))) (viewed as a function on U via specialization) is in O(U), such that, for any λ∈U, FU(λ)=IG†(ι×f,λ). Moreover, since ι and f∈Hp′ preserve the O0(U)-lattice RΓ∗(KpI,DU,n0), that FU is in O0(U), where DU,n0 is the O0(U) dual of AU,n0. So we have
[TABLE]
5.4 Effectivity
Proposition 5.4.1
If qG,ι=0, then eG,ιIG,0†(ι×f,λ) is an effective ι-twisted finite slope character distribution.
Proof
Since algebraic regular dominant weights are dense in the weight space, by Proposition 5.3.1, it suffices to prove the proposition for algebraic regular dominant weights λ in Υ. Since qG,ι=0,
by Proposition 5.2.6, eG,ιIG,0cl(ι×f,λ) is effective. Let PG.0cl(ι×f,λ,X) and PG.0†(ι×f,λ,X) be the Fredholm determinants associated to eG,ιIG,0cl(ι×f,λ) and eG,ιIG,0†(ι×f,λ) respectively, define
[TABLE]
Now we need the lemma below, which is a direct consequence of Proposition 5.2.10.
Lemma 5.4.2
If λ is regular, then PG,0†−cl(ι×f,λ,X) is a meromorphic function on Arig1(Cp), its zeros and poles are all lying in
[TABLE]
Proof
*of the lemma: *If J1 and J2 are two twisted finite slope character distributions, then so is J1−J2, and PJ1−J2(X,f)=PJ1(X,f)/PJ2(X,f). Write IG,0†−cl(ι×f,λ):=IG,0†(ι×f,λ)−IG,0cl(ι×f,λ). Proposition 5.2.10 implies that, for Zp-valued f=fp⊗ut∈Hp(Kp), IG,0†−cl(ι×f,λ)Kp′≡0 mod Nι(λ,t). So PG,0†−cl(ι×f,λ,X)≡1 mod Nι(λ,t). This proves the lemma.
Now we can run the same argument as in the proof of (Urban, , Theorem 4.7.3) to show our proposition. Choose a closed affinoid subdomain U⊂Xι which contains one hence dense algebraic weights in Υ. Shrink U if necessary so that we can write PG.0†(ι×f,λ,X) as a quotient of relatively prime Fredholm series over U, that is,
[TABLE]
with both T(ι×f,λ,X) and B(ι×f,λ,X) are in O(U×Arig1). Assume B(ι×f,λ,X)=1, let W be the Fredholm subvariety of U×Arig1 cut out by T(ι×f,λ,X) and B(ι×f,λ,X), that is, W=Z(B)−Z(T). Since the projection pr:Z(B)→U is flat, that its image pr(W) also contains dense algebraic weights. Now let w=(λ,x)∈W(Qp) with λ algebraic, we can choose w′=(λ′,x′)p-adically close to w such that λ′ is algebraic regular dominant in Υ and ∣x′∣p<Nι(λ′,t). So by Lemma 5.4.2, x′ must be a pole of PG.0cl(ι×f,λ′,X). However, since eG,ιIG,0cl(ι×f,λ′) is effective, PG.0cl(ι×f,λ′,X) is entire. So our assumption leads to a contradiction. This implies that PG.0†(ι×f,λ,X) is entire, therefore, eG,ιIG,0†(ι×f,λ) is also effective.
Corollary 5.4.3
For any ι-invariant standard Levi subgroup of G, there exists a number eL,ι such that, for any w∈WEisL,ι, eL,ιIG,L,wcl(ι×f,λ) and eL,ιIG,L,w†(ι×f,λ) are effective, unless IG,L,wcl(ι×f,λ) is trivial for some algrbraic regular weight λ∈Υ
Proof
It follows from the definition of IG,L,w†(ι×f,λ) and an exactly same argument for L as above.
5.5 Multiplicities
For ?=cl or †, write the Fredholm determinants associated to eG,ιIG,0?(ι×f,λ) by PG,0?(ι×f,λ,X), to eL,ιIG,L,w?(ι×f,λ) by PG,L,w?(ι×f,λ,X). Let π be a finite slope overconvergent representation, write the multiplicities:
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
For given Kp, if θ is an overconvergent Hecke eigensystem of level Kp, write its multiplicity in VG,0?,λ(Kp) by mG,0?,ι(θ,λ) . By Proposition 5.2.10, if θ or π is not ι-invariant, its multiplicities are [math].
Lemma 5.5.1
Let λ be an arithmetic regular weight and π an ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent representation, which is non-critical with respect to λalg, then
[TABLE]
Proof
Assume π is of level Kp. Since π is non-critical with respect to λ, there is t∈T++ such that vp(Nι(λ,t))>vp(θπ(ut)). if necessary, we can replace t by tN for some positive integer N to make vp(Nι(λ,t))−vp(θπ(ut)) arbitrarily large. Now consider the finite set of ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent representations:
[TABLE]
Since ΣKpt is finite, by Jacobson’s Lemma, there is f∈Hp(Kp) such that π(f)=idπKp and ρ(f)=0 for any ρ∈ΣKpt that is not isomorphic to π.
Consider f0=(1Kp⊗ut)f, we have for ?=† or cl
[TABLE]
where SG,0?(X) is the product of the determinants of all representations whose slopes are strictly greater than vp(Nι(λ,t)). Noticing that ΣKptM=ΣKpt for any positive integer M, we can therefore choose f independently for any M. So if necessary, we can replace t by tM such that f0=(1Kp⊗ut)f is Zp-valued. Then by Proposition 5.2.10 and Lemma 5.4.2, we have
[TABLE]
and they share the same zeros (order counted) mod Nι(λ,t). If necessary, replace t by tN as we observed at the beginning of the proof, we can assume that vp(Nι(λ,t)) is strictly greater than the p-adic valuation of all the coefficients of ∏i=0ldet(1−π~iKp(ι×1Kp⊗ut)X)mG,0,iι,?(π,λ), so we have
[TABLE]
In particular, they have the same degree, which are dim(π)mG,0ι,†(π,λ) and dim(π)mG,0ι,cl(π,λ) respectively. So mG,0ι,cl(π,λ)=mG,0ι,†(π,λ).
Noting that π~iKp(ι×1Kp⊗ut)=π~iKp(ι)θπ(ut) and πKp is finite dimensional, we can compute (5.5.6) more explicitly. Fix ξ a primitive l-th roots of unity, let kj(i) be the multiplicity of ξj as an eigenvalue of ι in π~iKp. Then for any i=1,⋯,l,
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
This gives us varies identities between the multiplicities. In particular, compare the coefficients of degree 1, we have
[TABLE]
If l=2, (\refsum) and (\refdifference) imply that
[TABLE]
Now assume that ι is of order 2, everything is defined as in Remark 7. Let λ=λalgϵ be an arithmetic weight. If π is a ι-invariant finite slope cuspidal representation, its ι-twisted Euler-Poincare characteristic mEPι(π,λ) is defined by:
[TABLE]
If π is of level Kp, then mEPι(π,λ) equal:
[TABLE]
Then a computation as in §5.2 shows that
[TABLE]
We close this section by considering the multiplicities of Hecke eigensystems:
Corollary 5.5.2
Let λ be an arithmetic regular weight and θ a finite slope ι-invariant overconvergent Hecke eigensysem, which is non-critical with respect to λalg, then
[TABLE]
Proof
This is a direct consequence of Lemma 5.5.1 and the formula that
[TABLE]
6 TWISTED EIGENVARIETIES
In this section, assuming that eG:=eG,ι=0, we construct eigenvarieties which parametrize ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystems of G. We call such an eigenvariety a ι-twisted eigenvariety of G.
6.1 Twisted spectral varieties
Consider the effective distribution eGIG.0†(ι×f,λ). For fixed Kp and f∈Hp(Kp), write VG,0†,λ(Kp) and PG.0†(ι×f,λ,X) as last section.
For any f=fp⊗ut∈Hp′(Kp) with t∈T++, there is a rigid analytic space Sι(f)⊂Xι×Arig1, such that (λ,α)∈Sι(f)(Qp) if and only if α−1 is an eigenvalue of ι×f on VG,0†,λ(Kp).
Proof
This is same to (Urban, , Proposition 5.1.6). Sι(f) is simply defind as the Fredholm hypersurface cut out by PG.0†(ι×f,λ,X) in Xι×Arig1.
6.2 Full eigenvariety
For later use, we summarize some results of Xiang . Given Kp, let RS,p be the p-adic completion of RS,p[ut−1,t∈T+]. Define RS,p as the p-adic analytic space, such that for any L/Qp in Qp,
[TABLE]
By construction, θ∈RS,p(L) is of finite slope. RS,p(L) has the canonical p-adic topology induced by the metric ∣θ−θ′∣=:supf∈RS,p∣θ(f)−θ′(f)∣p.
Set Y=X×RS,p, its L-points Y(L) are pairs (λ,θ). The full eigenvariety is a rigid analytic space E:=EKp over Qp, which is a subspace of Y as a p-adic analytic space. E is equipped with a projection onto X, such that (λ,θ)∈EKp(L) if and only if Hfs∗(SG(KpI),Dλ(L))[θ]=0, and, for any f∈RS,p, Rf(θ):=θ(f)−1 is an eigenvalue of f acting on H∗(SG(KpI),Dλ(L)). Indeed, for any f∈RS,p, (λ,θ)↦(λ,Rf(θ)) gives a projection from EKp onto a subvariety Sf of X×Arig1, and Sf is a piece of the spectral variety which parameterizes Hecke eigenvalues of f. For detail, refer (Xiang, , §6, 7, 8).
6.3 a big twisted eigenvariety
We constructed our first twisted eigenvariety Gι in this section using the method and notation in Xiang . Most results are parallel to Xiang , so we omit the proofs. Gι gives us a big space so that we can construct other twisted eigenvarities inside it.
6.3.1 Spectral varieties
Let U be an open affinoid subdomain of Xι, consider the action of ιRS,p on RΓ(KpI,DU):=⊕RΓq(KpI,DU) as in §3.1. By Proposition 2.3.4 and the discussion in §3.1.3, for any f∈RS,p admissible, there is a power series PU(f,λ,X)∈O(U){{X}}, such that for any λ∈U, the specialization of PU(f,λ,X) at λ is the Fredholm determinant of f acting on RΓ(KpI,Dλ).
Lemma 6.3.2** (Urban)**
Let j:N↪M be a continuous injection of L-Banach spaces. Let uN and uM be respectively compact endomorphisms of N and M such that j∘uN=uM∘j. Then M/j(N) has slope decomposition with respect to uM/N=uM( mod j(N)), and
[TABLE]
This lemma is (Urban, , Proposition 2.3.9). Apply lemma 6.3.2 to the situation M=N=RΓ(K,DU) and j=ι∗, we have
[TABLE]
Let PU(f,λ,X)=QU(X)SU(X) be a polynomial decomposition as in Lemma 3.2.1, and
[TABLE]
the corresponding O(U)-module decomposition. Apply Lemma 6.3.2 to the situation N=Nf(QU), M=RΓ(K,DU), j=ι∗, uN=f and uM=fι, we have
[TABLE]
Define
[TABLE]
Now ιHp(Kp) acts on Nf,ι(Q).
Recall that, in (Xiang, , Proposition 6.4), we defined a weight space W⊂X, such that for λ∈X, λ∈W if and only if Hfs(SG(K),Dλ)=0. Similarly, define
[TABLE]
and Wι the subspace of Xι obtained by gluing WQ,Uι for all U and QU. Then λ∈WQι(f)(Qp) if and only if H(Nf,ι∗(Q))=0. As a direct consequence of the fact that
[TABLE]
we have:
Proposition 6.3.3
[TABLE]
For an admissible f∈RS,p, define set {f}ι:={fιi×ιj∣1≤i,j≤l}. For any g∈{f}ι, define
[TABLE]
Proposition 6.3.4
SQ,U,gι* is locally finite over WQ,Uι. A point s=(λ,α) of U×Arig1 is in SQ,U,gι(Qp) if and only if λ∈WQ,Uι(Qp) and α−1 is an eigenvalue of g acting on Hf,ι∗(Q).*
The proof is same to (Xiang, , Proposition 6.6). Moreover, discuss as in (Xiang, , §6), given {f}ι and g∈{f}ι, we can glue the local spectral varieties SQ,U,gι for polynomials QU and open affinoid domains U⊂Xι:
Theorem 6.3.5
There is a spectral variety Sgι=SWι,gι as a rigid subspace of Xι×A1rig, such that, s=(λ,α)∈Sgι(Qp) if and only if λ∈Wι(Qp) and α−1 is an eigenvalue of g acting on Hfs∗(SG(K),Dλ).
Corollary 6.3.6
If g=ι×f, then
[TABLE]
6.3.7 A big twisted eigenvariety
We build an eigenvariety over the spectral varieties constructed in last subsection as in (Xiang, , §8). Let ιR~S,p be the p-adic completion of ιRS,p[ut−1,t∈T+]. Since ιRS,p=RS,p⋊⟨ι⟩ and ι is of finite order l, that ιR~S,p is an l pieces union of R~S,p. Define the p-adic space B=BS,p be such that for any L/Qp,
[TABLE]
There is a natural morphism
[TABLE]
given by restricting a character θ~ of ιR~S,p to R~S,p, i.e. θ:=i(θ~)=θ~∣R~S,p. This morphism is finite and continuous.
Define Zι=ZS,pι:=Xι×B. For any admissible f and g∈{f}ι⊂ιRS,p, we define the morphism of ringed space
[TABLE]
by (λ,θ~)↦(λ,θ~(g)−1) on L-points, and
[TABLE]
by ∑anXn↦∑an(g)−n on the function rings.
Define the rigid space,
[TABLE]
as in (Xiang, , §8), where its G-topology is defined via Rg’s. Concretely, an open subset of D~ι is admissible if it is a union of open subsets of the form Rg,1×⋯×Rgr−1(V) for V an open admissible affinoid of Sg1ι×⋯×Sgrι; and an admissible covering is the inverse images by Rg’s of the admissible coverings of the corresponding spectral varieties. Then we have a parallel result to (Xiang, , Proposition 8.1):
Proposition 6.3.8
Assume y~=(λ,θ~) is in Zι(Qp), then y~∈D~ι(Qp) if and only if H∗(SG(K),Dλ)[θ~]=0 as a ιRS,p-module. Moreover, given y~∈D~ι(Qp), there exists an admissible f, such that
[TABLE]
For U⊂Xι and PU(f,X)=Q(X)S(X) as in §6.3.1, let hU and hUι be the image of RU:=O(U)⊗RS,p and RUι:=O(U)⊗ιRS,p in Endpfb(RΓ(KpI,DU)) respectively, and let hU,Q and hU,Qι be the image of RU and RUι in Endpfb(Nf,ι(Q)) respectively. Define
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
Proposition 6.3.9
[TABLE]
The proof of proposition is same to (Xiang, , Proposition 8.2). Moreover, an argument as (Xiang, , Proposition 8.2, 8.3, 8,4) shows that we can patch G~U,Qι with respect to U and Q to obtain a rigid space G~fι. Define
[TABLE]
It is a reduced rigid analytic space, and by Proposition 6.3.8, 6.3.9
[TABLE]
Now given U and Q as above, define i:G~ι→E by locally defining:
[TABLE]
This is defined by the inclusions hU,Q↪hU,Qι and H(Nf,ι∗(Q))→H(Nf∗(Q)). In particular, on Qp-points, i sends (λ,θ~) to (λ,θ:=θ~∣RS,p). So it is defined on each fibre G~fι coincident with (6.3.11) and defined locally on points Rg−1SQ,U,gι(Qp). Finally, define Gι as the image of G~ι under i. Its points are described by the theorem below
Theorem 6.3.10
Assume y=(λ,θ) is in E(Qp), then y∈Gι(Qp) implies that θ is a ι-invariant finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystem of weight λ. For any f∈RS,p, Rf maps Gι to SWι,fι. It is locally finite and surjective. In particular, dimGι≤dimXι.
This is directly follows from the definition, noting that f∈{f}ι.
Remark 9
Generally, Gι is NOT the eigenvariety parameterizing all ι-invariant Hecke eigensystems. Actually, it parameterizes those θ such that, as a one-dimensional subspace of H(SG(K),Dλ), ι∗ maps Vθ to itself, as the set A in the proof of Proposition 3.3.9.
6.4 Twisted eigenvariety
Now fix Kp, for any f∈RS,p, consider the morphism
Rι×f:Zι→Xι×Arig1 defined as in §6.3.7,
and define
[TABLE]
where the product is running over admissible Hecke operators f.
Theorem 6.4.1** (twisted eigenvarities)**
Given Kp as above, there is a subvariety EKpι of EKp, satisfying:
(a)
For any (λ,θ)∈EKp(Qp), (λ,θ) is in EKpι(Qp) if and only if θ is ι-invariant and mG,0†,ι(θ,λ)=0.
(b)
Every irreducible component of EKpι projects surjectively onto a Zariski dense subset of Xι.
(c)
EKpι* is equidimensional with the same dimension to Xι, and every irreducible component is arithmetic.*
Proof
Define Eι:=EKpι to be the image of E~ι under i. Its underlying topological space Eι(Qp) is given by the image i(Eι~(Qp)). Firstly we show Eι(Qp)⊂EKp(Qp) and the part (a) by modifying the proof of (Urban, , Proposition 5.2.3). As in §5.1, write
[TABLE]
where σ=πKp is running over all ι-invariant finite slope representations of Hp(Kp) appearing in the distribution eGIG,0†(ι×f,λ)Kp′. Given (λ,θ~)∈Eι~(L), fix t∈T++, set h=vp(θ~(ut)) and
[TABLE]
Hp(Kp) acts on W since RS,p is in its center. Since every σ appearing in V is ι-invariant, that ιHp(Kp) acts on W. Let hW be the image of RS,p→EndL(W). It is finitely generated by the image of finitely many elements {f1,⋯fr} in RS,p. Let Ω be the set consisting of θ~(ut),θ~(fi), and all eigenvalues of ut, ι×ut, fi, ι×fi on W. Now let R be a number such that for any α,α′∈Ω, vp(α−α′)≤vp(R), define operators h1=f1, hi+1=fi+1(1+Rhi) and f=ut(1+Rhr).
Since (λ,θ~)∈Eι~(L), there is 0=wf∈V and σ~i appeaing in V, such that
[TABLE]
in particular, wf is an eigenvector of σ(ι×ut) and σ(ι). Denote their eigenvalue by af and bf respectively. Since ι is of finite order, bf is a unit. Write θ=σ∣RS,p, then (λ,θ)∈EKp(Qp), we want to show i(θ~)=θ.
Indeed, vp(bf)+vp(θ(ut))+vp(θ(1+Rhr))=vp(θ~(ι))+vp(θ~(ut))+vp(θ~(1+Rhr)). Since bf and θ~(ι) are units, by the setting of R, vp(θ(ut))=vp(θ~(ut)). This implies that σ actually appears in W. On the other hand, (af−θ~(ι×ut))θ(1+Rhr)=θ~(ι×ut)(θ~(1+Rhr)−θ(1+Rhr)). This implies vp(af−θ~(ι×ut))>vp(R). So af=θ~(ι×ut) and θ(hr)=θ~(hr). Repeating the process, we have θ~(fi)=θ(fi) for all fi. Therefor θ~∣RS,p=θ and i(λ,θ~)=(λ,θ)∈E(L). In particular θ is ι-invariant. By our construction of θ and formula (5.5.15), we have mG,0†,ι(θ,λ)=0.
Now we prove the other direction of (a). If Vi:=Vσ~i appearing in (6.4.2), let Vi=⊕ζVi[ζ] be the eigen decomposition of Vi under ι, then ιRS,p acts on each Vi[ζ]. Let (λ,θ)∈E(Qp) be ι-invariant. If mG,0ι,†(θ,λ)=0, there is some Vi such that Vi[θ]=0 as a RS,p-module. In particular, θ appears in some Vi[ζ]. Define θ~ be the extension of θ to ιRS,p by setting θ~(ι)=ζ. It is then clear that (λ,θ~)∈E~ι(Qp) and i(λ,θ~)=(λ,θ).
By construction, for any f∈RS,p, there is a commutative diagram:
[TABLE]
Consider the first column of the diagram. Rι×f is locally finite, and Sf is constructed by the Fredholm power series. So by the same argument of (Urban, , Theorem 5.3.7), Rι×f is finite surjective. Now Proposition 6.3.8 and Corollary 6.3.6 enable us to run an argument as in (Urban, , Corollary 5.3.8), so the composition of the first two arrows in the first column is surjective onto a Zariski dense subset of Xι. Since i keeps the first coordinate λ, that the projection from Eι(Qp) to Xι in the second column is also Zariski surjective. So dim(Eι)≥dim(Xι). However, (6.4.4) and Theorem 6.3.10 imply that dim(Eι)≤dim(Gι)=dim(Wι)≤dim(Xι). So we have dim(Eι)=dim(Xι), Xι=Wι ( This is the reason of the third row of the diagram) and in particular the Rf in the third column is also surjective. Together with Proposition 6.4.8, an argument as in (Urban, , Corollary 5.3.8) again shows that Rf in the second column is also locally finite and surjective.
Now since dim(Gι)=dim(Xι), denote by Gι,c the union of codimension [math] arithmetic components (i.e. irreducible components contains a Zariski dense subset of arithmetic points) of Gι. Then the same argument as in (Xiang, , Proposition 8.9) shows that
[TABLE]
This proves (b) and (c) of the theorem.
Remark 10
By the last observation (6.4.6) in the proof above, throughout this section we can work on the p-adic spaces Eι(Qp) and finally define the rigid analytic structure on Eι by the one induced from Gι,c.
7 THE CASE OF Gln
In this section, we study the case of G=Gln over Q. Fix the pair (B,T), where B is the subgroup of upper triangular matrices and T the diagonal subgroup. Then
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
Define gι:=j(tg−1)j−1 for any g∈G, where j=(δi,n+1−j)1≤i,j≤n if n is odd; and
[TABLE]
if n=2k is even. It is easy to check that ι is an automorphism of G of order 2, and ι stabilizes (B,T,Im) and T+, T++.
Let π be an automorphic representation of G. π is ι-invariant if and only if π is self-dual in the usual sense.
7.1 IG,0†(ι×f,λ) is non-trivial
Consider the ι-twisted distribution IG,0†(ι×f,λ) defined for G and ι as in §5.2, we prove it is non-trivial by computing qG,ι as in Proposition 5.2.6.
Proposition 7.1.1
Let λ∈Xι be an arithmetic regular dominant weight in Υ. Let π be a self-dual finite slope cuspidal representation of weight λ. Assume that π is non-critical with respect to λ. Then qG,ι=0.
Proof
It is a computation given by Barbasch and Speh in (BS, , VI.3) that
[TABLE]
Since ι is of order 2, for ?=cl or †, we define eG,ιIG,0?(ι×f,λ) as in Remark 7. Considering the last paragraph in §5.5, we have
Corollary 7.1.2
Let λ∈Xι be an arithmetic regular dominant weight in Υ. Let π be a self-dual finite slope cuspidal representation of weight λ. Assume that π is non-critical with respect to λ. Then mEPι(σ,λ)=0.
Proof
By the definition (5.5.11), combining (5.5.3) and (5.5.13), we compute as in §5.2:
[TABLE]
Since G=Gln, the cohomological packet at infinity for λ has only one element, which is of the form Ab(λ) as in Theorem 5.2.3 (see also Speh ). So
[TABLE]
where the last two lines hold since Gln admits the multiplicity one theorem.
Remark 11
Corollary 7.1.2 implies that the ι-twisted eigenvariety EKpι we constructed in Theorem 6.4.1 for Gln parameterizes all non-critical self-dual finite slope cuspidal Hecke eigensystems of level Kp.
7.2 Essentially self-dual representations
A representation π is essentially ι-invariant if there exists an algebraic character χ of Gm such that χ∘det⊗πι≅π.In case G=Fln, π is essentially ι-invariant if and only if it is essentially self-dual in the usual sense.
A weight λ∈X(L) is determined by np-adic characters χ1,⋯,χn of Gm(Zp) such that
[TABLE]
An essentially self-dual weight is characterized by χiχn+1−i=χjχn+1−j for any 1≤i,j≤n. Denote by Xe the subspace of essentially self-dual weights in X, then dim(Xe)=[2n]+1. Given a character χ, denote by Xχe the subspace of essentially self-dual weights with respect to χ in Xe. It is cut out by the relation χiχn+1−i=χjχn+1−j=χ, then dim(Xχe)=[2n].
We now construct Ee, an eigenvariety which parameterizes all essentially self-dual finite slope overconvergent Hecke eigensystems of G, by applying our method to the group G~=Gln×Gl1, with involution μ:(g,x)↦(gι,det(g)x).
Consider the weight space X~=X×B1. Here B1 is the p-adic weight space of Gl1, it is the rigid unit ball. Denote by X~μ the μ-invariant subspace of X~. It is easy to check that
[TABLE]
Its first component projects bijectively to Xe.
Consider an open compact subgroup K~f=Kf×Kf1 of G~(Af), where Kf is defined as previous sections and Kf1 is a neat open compact subgroup of Gl1(Af). We simply fix Kp1=Z^ and normalize the Haar measure on Gl1 such that meas(Zl)=1 for any finite place l. Then
[TABLE]
For the group Gl1, it is easy to see that TGl1+=TGl1++=TGl1(Qp)=Qp×. So Up(Gl1)=Zp[T+/T(Zp)]=Zp[Qp×/Zp×]. This implies that the p-adic Hecke algebra for G~ is given by:
[TABLE]
For any f∈Hp′(K~p) admissible, write f=(fG,f1) with fG=fGp⊗ut, t∈T++ and f1p⊗ut′t′∈Qp×.
For λ~=(λ,χ)∈X~μ a regular dominant weight, let Vλ~ be the finite dimensional irreducible algebraic representation of G~ with highest weight λ~ and Dλ~ the local distribution space defined in §2.3. It is not hard to see
[TABLE]
where the right side is understood as the space Vλ together with an action of Gl1 given by multiplying the value of χ and the isomorphism is given by ϕ↦ϕ1 such that ϕ1(g):=ϕ(g,1) for any g∈G. Generally, let π be an irreducible representation of G~, since Gl1 is in the center of G~, π∣Gl1 is given by a character χ and π∣G is irreducible as well. It is easy to check that π≅π∣G×χ, and π is μ-invariant if and only if π∣G is essentially ι-invariant with respect to χ. If π is a μ-invariant representation of G~, as in §3.3, we can extend π to a representation π~ of G~⋊⟨μ⟩, then we restrict π~ to G⋊⟨μ⟩. This gives an μ-action on Vπ such that for any g∈G,
[TABLE]
Now we can define μ-twisted finite slope character distributions I?cl(μ×f,λ~) and I?†(μ×f,λ~) as (4.4.1), (4.4.3) and §5.2, where ?=G~,(G~,0),(G~,M~,0). In particular, IG~,0cl(μ×f,λ~) and IG~,0†(μ×f,λ~) are essentially effective, as in §5.4. Moreover, we can compute them explicitly and relate them to the distributions IG,0cl(ι×fG,λ) and IG,0†(ι×fG,λ) for G:
[TABLE]
where the last second equation follows from §3.1.8 and (7.2.5), the action of μ is given as in (\reftwistrestrict). In particular, if χ is trivial,
Given character χ and λ∈Xe which is essentially ι-invariant with respect to χ, inspired by the above computation, we can directly define for f∈Hp(Kp) that
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
where the lower index in μχ emphsis that the twisted action μ on the cohomology spaces are defined according to χ. Just like Proposition 3.3.9, one can show that only the trace of representations which are essentially ι-invariant with respect to χ can contribute to these distributions, and the discussion in §4-6 works for them as well.
Now let λ~=(λ,χ) be an arithmetic weight, π a μ-invariant finite slope cuspidal representation of G~, assume that π∣Gl1=χ. Let π(χ−1) be π twisting the inverse of χ by Gl1, and πχ be the factorization of π(χ−1) to G≅G~/Gl1, it is easy to see that πχ is ι-invariant. Compute by definition, we have
Assume G=Gln there is an eigenvariety Ee⊂E defined as in Theorem 6.5.1, such that
(a)
there are two projections p1:Ee→Xe and p2:Ee→B1, such that y=(λy,θy)∈Ee(Qˉp) if and only if θ is a finite slope overconvergent Heche eigensystem of weight λy=p1(y) and is essentially self-dual with respect to χy=p2(y) with mG,0†,ι((θ×χy)χy,(λ×χy)χy)=0 .
(b)
Ee* is equidimensional of dimension [2n]+1*
(c)
For any χ∈B1, set Eχe=p2−1(χ), then Eχe is the eigenvariety parameterizing essentially self-dual Hecke eigensystems of G with respect to χ. In particular, E0e=Eι.
Remark 13
(a)
As Remark 7.1.3, Ee(Qp) contains all essentially self-dual finite slope cuspidal Hecke eigensysems of G.
(b)
Applying our theory to IG,0†,χ(ι×f,λ), we can obtain Eχe directly.
7.3 Ash-Pollack-Stevens Conjecture
Let θ0 be a classical finite slope cuspidal Hecke eigensystem of Gln of regular weight λ0. θ0 is called p-adic arithmetic rigid, if it is not contained in any arithmetic irreducible component of EKp. Conjecture 1.1 claims that, if θ is not essentially self-dual then it is p-adic arithmetic rigid. Theorem 7.2.1 gives its inverse:
Corollary 7.3.1
Assume θ0 is essentially self-dual, then it is not p-adic arithmetic rigid, lying in an arithmetic component of Ee.
Proof
By Theorem 7.2.1, (λ0,θ0)∈Ee(Qp). Consider the subset Σ of Ee(Qˉp) consisting of (λ,θ) such that λ is arithmetic and θ is non-critical with respect to λ. Σ is Zariski dense in Ee(Qˉp) since its projection to Xe contains an arithmetic point λ. By Corollary 5.5.2, those points in Σ are classical and corresponding to cuspidal Hecke eigensystems.
The next theorem shows that the smooth hyperthesis on arithmetic points of an eigenvarity may give some hint on the Ash-Pollack-Stevens conjecture.
Theorem 7.3.2
Assume that every arithmetic point in the eigenvariety is smooth. Assume θ0 is not p-adic arithmetic rigid, and its arithmetic component contains one arithmetic, essentially self-dual Hecke eigensystem, then this arithmetic component contains a Zariski dense subset of essentially self-dual Hecke eigensystems.
Proof
By APG , (λ0,θ0) is contained in an arithmetic component of dimension [2n]+1 over Xe. By our assumption, this component intersects with Ee at some smooth point and Ee is also of dimension [2n]+1. So the arithmetic component contains an irreducible component of Ee.
Remark 14
Assume G=Gl3. The theorem 7.3.2 assumes that there is an essentially self-dual point in the arithmetic component. This is not surprising if the eigenvarieties have good geometry. By Xiang , we know the full eigenvariety E has dimension ⩽3. Let A an arithmetic component, it also projects onto Xe and is of dimension at least 1. Since we know that Ee has dimension 2, it should meet A.
