Invariant distributions on \(p\)-adic analytic groups (Q877483)

This article is based on the author's doctoral thesis [\textit{J. Kohlhaase}, Invariant distributions on \(p\)-adic analytic groups, Münster: Univ. Münster, Fachbereich Mathematik und Informatik, Mathematisch-Natur\-wissenschaftliche Fakultät (Dissertation) (2005; Zbl 1088.11089)]. The work concerns \(p\)-adic distributions on a \(p\)-adic group \(G\). More precisely, \(G\) is the group of \(L\)-rational points of a split reductive group over \(L\), where \(L\) is a finite extension of \(\mathbb Q_p\). For a spherically complete extension \(K\) of \(L\), the author studies the algebra \(D(G,K)\) of locally analytic distributions on \(G\) with values in \(K\). From the summary: ``We derive several explicit descriptions of the center of the algebra \(D(G,K)\) of locally analytic distributions on \(G\) with values in \(K\). The main result is a generalization of an isomorphism of Harish-Chandra which connects the center of \(D(G,K)\) with the algebra of Weyl-invariant, centrally supported distributions on a maximal torus of \(G\). This isomorphism is supposed to play a role in the theory of locally analytic representations of \(G\) as studied by P. Schneider and J. Teitelbaum.''
