Categorification of local relative Langlands duality

Yuta Takaya, Milton Lin

TL;DR

The paper advances a local, categorical reformulation of relative Langlands duality by defining an ℓ-adic six-functor framework on small v-stacks and formulating A-side (Bun_G^X, period sheaves) and B-side (Par_LG, L-sheaves) structures. It computes unnormalized periods for the Iwasawa-Tate and Hecke cases on both sides, and establishes normalization via degree and half-cyclotomic twists, drawing a precise parallel between geometrized period data and spectral L-parameters. The work also links the normalized period conjecture to distinction problems, showing how Langlands-Shahidi-type parameters and eigenstructure should sit inside the image of the norm-twisted, normalized L-sheaf under a hypothetical categorical local Langlands correspondence. Overall, it lays out a rigorous, derived-local framework for comparing automorphic and spectral data in the relative Langlands setting and illustrates the normalization and functional-equation features that mirror global conjectures in a local geometric context.

Abstract

We formulate the normalized period conjecture proposed by Ben-Zvi, Sakellaridis and Venkatesh in the framework of the categorical local Langlands correspondence and study its relation to distinction problems. Motivated by the work of Feng and Wang in the geometric setting, we verify the conjecture for the Iwasawa-Tate and Hecke periods, assuming the existence of the categorical local Langlands correspondence for $\mathrm{GL}_2$ with the Eisenstein compatibility.

Key Result

Proposition 1

(prop:BunGXArtin and prop:trivfib) The prestack ${\operatorname{Bun}}_G^X$ is a $v$-stack on ${\operatorname{Perf}}^{\mathrm{std}}$ and can be extended to an Artin $v$-stack on ${\operatorname{Perf}}$. There is an open and closed immersion over ${\operatorname{Bun}}_G^1 \cong [\ast/\underline{G(F)}]$ and it is an isomorphism if $X$ is quasi-affine.
