Abstract

Let F be a finite extension of ℚ p . Using the mod p Satake transform, we define what it means for an irreducible admissible smooth representation of an F-split p-adic reductive group over \(\overline{ \mathbb{F}}_{p}\) to be supersingular. We then give the classification of irreducible admissible smooth GL n (F)-representations over \(\overline{ \mathbb{F}}_{p}\) in terms of supersingular representations. As a consequence we deduce that supersingular is the same as supercuspidal. These results generalise the work of Barthel–Livné for n=2. For general split reductive groups we obtain similar results under stronger hypotheses.
