Abstract: Let E/F be a quadratic extension of non-archimedean local fields of characteristic 0. In this paper, we investigate two approaches which attempt to describe the smooth irreducible representations of GL(n,E) that are distinguished by its subgroup GL(n,F). One relates this class to representations which come as base change lifts from a quasi-split unitary group F, while another deals with a certain symmetry condition. By characterizing the union of images of the base change maps we show that these two approaches are closely related. Using this observation, we are able to prove a statement relating base change and distinction for ladder representations. We then produce a wide family of examples in which the symmetry condition does not impose GL(n,F)-distinction, and thus exhibit the limitations of these two approaches.

Review text

Let \(E/F\) be a quadratic extension of non-Archimedean local fields of characteristic 0. This lovely paper considers two approaches which attempt to describe the irreducible smooth representations of GL(\(n,E\)) that are distinguished by its subgroup GL(\(n,F\)); note that ``distinguished is not related to the notion of ``normal subgroup in French, but to the existence of a nonzero invariant linear form on the representation in question. One approach, introduced in the present case in the reviewer's [J. Reine Angew. Math. 418, 139--172 (1991; Zbl 0725.11026)], relates this class to representations which arise as base change lifts from a quasi-split unitary group over \(F\). The other deals with a certain symmetry condition. By characterizing the union of images of the base change maps, it is shown that these two approaches are closely related. Using this observation, a statement relating base change and distinction for ladder representations is proven. Further, a wide family of examples in which the symmetry condition does not impose GL(\(n,F\))-distinction is produced, thus exhibiting the limitations of these two approaches.
