چکیده
Abstract. We study spherical Whittaker functions on a metaplectic cover of GL(r + 1) over a nonarchimedean local field using lattice models from statistical mechanics. An explicit description of this Whittaker function was given in terms of Gelfand-Tsetlin patterns in [5, 17], and we translate this description into an expression of the values of the Whittaker function as partition functions of a sixvertex model. Properties of the Whittaker function may then be expressed in terms of the commutativity of row transfer matrices potentially amenable to proof using the Yang-Baxter equation. We give two examples of this: first, the equivalence of two different Gelfand-Tsetlin definitions, and second, the effect of the Weyl group action on the Langlands parameters. The second example is closely connected with another construction of the metaplectic Whittaker function by averaging over a Weyl group action [9, 10].

متن کاملMetaplectic-c Quantomorphisms
In the classical Kostant–Souriau prequantization procedure, the Poisson algebra of a symplectic manifold (M,ω) is realized as the space of infinitesimal quantomorphisms of the prequantization circle bundle. Robinson and Rawnsley developed an alternative to the Kostant–Souriau quantization process in which the prequantization circle bundle and metaplectic structure for (M,ω) are replaced by a me...
متن کاملTwo Simple Observations on Representations of Metaplectic Groups
M. Hanzer and I. Matić have proved that the genuine unitary principal series representations of the metaplectic groups are irreducible. A simple consequence of that paper is a criterion for the irreducibility of the non-unitary principal series representations of the metaplectic groups that we give in this paper.
متن کاملAutomorphic Forms and Metaplectic Groups
In 1952, Gelfand and Fomin noticed that classical modular forms were related to representations of SL2(R). As a result of this realization, Gelfand later defined GLr automorphic forms via representation theory. A metaplectic form is just an automorphic form defined on a cover of GLr, called a metaplectic group. In this talk, we will carefully construct the metaplectic covers of GL2(F) where F i...
متن کاملMETAPLECTIC OPERATORS ON C n by HANS
The metaplectic representation describes a class of automorphisms of the Heisenberg group H = H(G), defined for a locally compact abelian groupG. ForG = R ,H is the usual Heisenberg group. For the case when G is the finite cyclic group Zn, only partial constructions are known. Here we present new results for this case and we obtain an explicit construction of the metaplectic operators on C. We ...
