On reducibility of induced representations of odd unitary groups: the depth zero case
Subha Sandeep Repaka
Abstract
We study a problem concerning parabolic induction in certain $p$-adic unitary groups. More precisely, for $E/F$ a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields the associated unitary group $G=\mathrm{U}(n,n+1)$ contains a parabolic subgroup $P$ with Levi component $L$ isomorphic to $\mathrm{GL}_n(E) \times \mathrm{U}_1(E)$. Let $π$ be an irreducible supercuspidal representation of $L$ of depth zero. We use Hecke algebra methods to determine when the parabolically induced representation $ι_P^G π$ is reducible.
