Summary on Grant Application Form
The aim of this project is to develop further the representation theory of the Hecke Hn of the group GLn over a p-adic field, relative to the Iwahori subgroup. We propose to find an irreducibility criterion for a wide class of induced representations of the algebra Hn. Representations from this class are parametrised by the sequences of pairs consisting of a skew Young diagram and a complex number, the total number of boxes in these diagrams being n. In the particular case when each of these diagrams consists of one row only, such a criterion was found by A.Zelevinsky in 1980. He used the representation theory of the p-adic group GLn itself. We are going to employ the canonical basis, due to M.Kashiwara and G.Lusztig, in the quantum co-ordinate ring of the complex group of triangular unipotent matrices.
