Generic character sheaves on groups over k[]/(^r)

Abstract: Let

G

be a connected reductive group over

k k

, an algebraic closure of a finite field. For an integer

r g e 1

let

G_{r} = G (k k [e] / (e^{r}))

viewed as an algebraic group of dimension

r d i m G

over

k k

. We show that the character of the generic principal series representation of

G_{r} (F_{q})

can be realized by a simple perverse sheaf on

G_{r}

provided that

r = 2

or

r = 4

and we give a strategy to prove the same statement for any even

r

. (The case where

r = 1

is already known.)
