Abstract

Let G be a split reductive algebraic group over a non-archimedean local field. We study the representation theory of a central extension \(\widetilde{G}\) of G by a cyclic group of order n, under some mild tameness assumptions on n. In particular, we focus our attention on the development of the theory of principal series representations for \(\widetilde{G}\) and its applications to the study of Hecke algebras via a Satake isomorphism.
