We cite from the abstract and from the introduction of this paper: Let \(\mathbf G\) be a reductive group defined over a non-Archimedean local field \(F\). Let \(G = \mathbf G(F)\) be the corresponding \(l\)-group and let \(S(G)\) be the space of locally constant compactly supported functions on \(G\). Let \(z = z(G) = \mathrm{End}_{G \times G}(S(G))\) denote the Bernstein center. The action of \(z\) on \(S(G)\) gives rise to the dual action on the space of distributions \(S^\ast(G)\). In this paper, we study \(z\)-finite distributions, i.e., distributions \(\xi\) such that \(\dim( z \cdot \xi) < \infty\). We provide some tools to work with aforementioned action and prove the following results. The wavefront set of any \(z\)-finite distribution \(\xi\) on \(G\) over any point \(x \in G\) lies inside the nilpotent cone of \(T_x ^\ast G \cong g\). Let \(H_1, H_2 \in G\) be symmetric subgroups. Consider the space \(J\) of \(H_1 \times H_2\)-invariant distributions on \(G\). We prove that the \(z\)-finite distributions in \(J\) form a dense subspace. In fact, we prove this result in wider generality, where the groups \(H_i\) are spherical subgroups of certain type and the invariance condition is replaced by equivariance. Further, we apply those results to density and regularity of relative characters. The first result can be viewed as a version of Howe's expansion of characters. The second result can be viewed as a spherical space analog of a classical theorem on density of characters of finite length representations. It can also be viewed as a spectral version of Bernstein's localization principle. In the Archimedean case, the first result is well-known and the second remains open. There are also two appendices to this paper (that occupy almost half of it): Appendix A. ``Fuzzy balls'' (jointly with A. Kemarsky) Appendix B. ``Finite Generation of Hecke Modules'' (by A. Aizenbud and D. Gourevitch)
