Non-solvable base change for Hilbert modular representations and zeta functions of twisted quaternionic Shimura varieties (Q2430129): Difference between revisions

From the introduction: In the first part of this article the author proves the following non-solvable base change for Hilbert modular representations: Theorem 1.1. Let \(F\) be a totally real number field, and let \(\pi\) be a cuspidal automorphic representation of weight \(k\geq 2\) of \(\text{GL}(2)/F\). Let \(F'\) be a finite solvable extension of a totally real number field containing \(F\). Then there exists a number field \(F''\) containing \(F'\) which is a solvable extension of a totally real field, such that \(F''\) is Galois over \(\mathbb Q\), and such that the representation \(\pi\) admits a base change to \(\text{GL}(2)/F''\). If \(F'\) is a totally real number field, then \(F''\) can be chosen to be a totally real number field. To show this theorem, the author uses some results from Taylor's papers [\textit{M. Harris, N. Shepherd-Barron} and \textit{R. Taylor}, Ann. Math. (2) 171, No. 2, 779--813 (2010; Zbl 1263.11061)] and [\textit{R. Taylor}, Doc. Math., J. DMV Extra Vol., 729--779 (2006; Zbl 1138.11051)]. Recall that from Langlands and Arthur-Clozel we know that if \(\pi\) is an automorphic representation of \(\text{GL}(n)/F\), where \(F\) is a number field, and \(F'\) is a solvable extension of \(F\), then \(\pi\) admits a base change to \(\text{GL}(n)/F'\). In the second part of this article, he computes the zeta function of some ``twisted'' quaternionic Shimura varieties in terms of automorphic representations, and as an application of Theorem~1.1 he proves that their zeta function could be meromorphically continued to the entire complex plane and satisfies a functional equation.
