On irreducible representations of compact -adic analytic groups
arXiv:1102.2606
Abstract
We prove that the canonical dimension of a coadmissible representation of a semisimple -adic Lie group in a -adic Banach space is either zero or at least half the dimension of a non-zero coadjoint orbit. To do this we establish analogues for -adically completed enveloping algebras of Bernstein's inequality for modules over Weyl algebras, the Beilinson-Bernstein localisation theorem and Quillen's Lemma about the endomorphism ring of a simple module over an enveloping algebra.
