AbstractThe Langlands program posits that automorphic forms associated to a reductive group are parametrized by Galois representations valued in its dual group. Around ten years ago, Weissman-Gan-Gao proposed an extension of the Langlands program which puts covering groups (such as the metaplectic group) under the same framework. In this minicourse, I will explain how to systematically study su...
AbstractIn the talk, l shall present our joint paper with A.Gerasimov and D.Lebedev. in this paper, wedevelop a representation theory approach to the study of generalized hypergeometric functions ofGelfand, Kapranov and Zelevisnky (GKZ). We show that the GKZ hypergeometric functions may beidentified with matrix elements of non-reductive Lie algebras L(N) of oscillator type. The Whittakerfunctio...
