A correspondence for the generalized Hecke algebra of the metaplectic cover , -adic.
We give a simple proof of a result of R. Rochberg and M. H. Taibleson that various maximal operators on a homogeneous tree, including the Hardy-Littlewood and spherical maximal operators, are of weak type (1,1). This result extends to corresponding maximal operators on a transitive group of isometries of the tree, and in particular for (nonabelian finitely generated) free groups.
Given a representation of a local unitary group and another local unitary group , either the Theta correspondence provides a representation of or we set . If is fixed and varies in a Witt tower, a natural question is: for which is ? For given dimension there are exactly two isometry classes of unitary spaces that we denote . For let us denote the minimal of the same parity of such that , then we prove that where is the dimension of .
