Abstract:

Let $G$ be the group of rational points of a connected reductive $p$-adic group and let $K$ be a maximal compact subgroup satisfying conditions of Theorem 5 from Harish-Chandra (1970). Generalized spherical functions on $G$ are eigenfunctions for the action of the Bernstein center, which satisfy a transformation property for the action of $K$. In this paper we show that spaces of generalized spherical functions are finite dimensional. We compute dimensions of spaces of generalized spherical functions on a Zariski open dense set of infinitesimal characters. As a consequence, we get that on that Zariski open dense set of infinitesimal characters, the dimension of the space of generalized spherical functions is constant on each connected component of infinitesimal characters. We also obtain the formula for the generalized spherical functions by integrals of Eisenstein type. On the Zariski open dense set of infinitesimal characters that we have mentioned above, these integrals then give the formula for all the generalized spherical functions. At the end, let as mention that among others we prove that there exists a Zariski open dense subset of infinitesimal characters such that the category of smooth representations of $G$ with fixed infinitesimal character belonging to this subset is semi-simple.
