Abstract

Let F be a p-adic field. Let Sp(n) denote the sympletic group of rank n over F, and let \({\widetilde{Sp(n)}}\) be the unique (up to isomorphism) metaplectic double cover of Sp(n). We prove irreducibility of the unitary principal series of the group \({\widetilde{Sp(n)}}\) over F using theta correspondence.
