Types for tame p-adic groups
Let k be a non-archimedean local field with residual characteristic p. Let G
be a connected reductive group over k that splits over a tamely ramified field
extension of k. Suppose p does not divide the order of the Weyl group of G.
Then we show that every smooth irreducible complex representation of G(k)
contains an -type of the form constructed by Kim and Yu and that
every irreducible supercuspidal representation arises from Yu's construction.
This improves an earlier result of Kim, which held only in characteristic
zero and with a very large and ineffective bound on p. By contrast, our bound
on p is explicit and tight, and our result holds in positive characteristic as
well. Moreover, our approach is more explicit in extracting an input for Yu's
construction from a given representation.Comment: 37 page
Stable vectors in Moy-Prasad filtrations
Let k be a finite extension of Q_p, let G be an absolutely simple split
reductive group over k, and let K be a maximal unramified extension of k. To
each point in the Bruhat-Tits building of G_K, Moy and Prasad have attached a
filtration of G(K) by bounded subgroups. In this paper we give necessary and
sufficient conditions for the dual of the first Moy-Prasad filtration quotient
to contain stable vectors for the action of the reductive quotient.
Our work extends earlier results by Reeder and Yu, who gave a classification
in the case when p is sufficiently large. By passing to a finite unramified
extension of k if necessary, we obtain new supercuspidal representations of
G(k).Comment: 18 pages (Section 5 was expanded), accepted for publication in

On Kostant Sections and Topological Nilpotence
Let G denote a connected, quasi-split reductive group over a field F that is
complete with respect to a discrete valuation and that has a perfect residue
field. Under mild hypotheses, we produce a subset of the Lie algebra g(F) that
picks out a G(F)-conjugacy class in every stable, regular, topologically
nilpotent conjugacy class in g(F). This generalizes an earlier result obtained
by DeBacker and one of the authors under stronger hypotheses. We then show that
if F is p-adic, then the characteristic function of this set behaves well with
respect to endoscopic transfer.Comment: 23 pages, accepted for publication in the Journal of the London

p-adic q-expansion principles on unitary Shimura varieties
We formulate and prove certain vanishing theorems for p-adic automorphic forms on unitary groups of arbitrary signature. The p-adic q-expansion principle for p-adic modular forms on the Igusa tower says that if the coefficients of (sufficiently many of) the q-expansions of a p-adic modular form f are zero, then f vanishes everywhere on the Igusa tower. There is no p-adic q-expansion principle for unitary groups of arbitrary signature in the literature. By replacing q-expansions with Serre–Tate expansions (expansions in terms of Serre–Tate deformation coordinates) and replacing modular forms with automorphic forms on unitary groups of arbitrary signature, we prove an analogue of the p-adic q-expansion principle. More precisely, we show that if the coefficients of (sufficiently many of) the Serre–Tate expansions of a p-adic automorphic form f on the Igusa tower (over a unitary Shimura variety) are zero, then f vanishes identically on the Igusa tower.This paper also contains a substantial expository component. In particular, the expository component serves as a complement to Hida’s extensive work on p-adic automorphic forms
