Abstract:

We study the action on the homogeneous tree associated with ${\text {PG}}{{\text {L}}_2}({{\mathbf {Q}}_p})$, of a suitably chosen discrete subgroup which is isomorphic to ${{\mathbf {Z}}_2} * \cdots * {{\mathbf {Z}}_2}$ and is cocompact. We prove that the spherical representations of ${\text {PG}}{{\text {L}}_2}({{\mathbf {Q}}_p})$ remain irreducible when restricted to this subgroup.
