Construction of tame supercuspidal representations

Abstract

We give a quite general construction of irreducible supercuspidal representations and supercuspidal types (in the sense of Bushnell and Kutzko) of p p -adic groups. In the tame case, the construction should include all known constructions, and it is expected that this gives all supercuspidal representations. We also give a conjectural Hecke algebra isomorphism, which can be used to analyze arbitrary irreducible admissible representations, following the ideas of Howe and Moy.
