Orthogonality relations for deep level Deligne–Lusztig schemes of Coxeter type

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we prove some orthogonality relations for representations arising from deep level Deligne–Lusztig schemes of Coxeter type. This generalizes previous results of Lusztig [Lus04], and of Chan and the second author [CI21b]. Applications include the study of smooth representations of p-adic groups in the cohomology of p-adic Deligne–Lusztig spaces and their relation to the local Langlands correspondences. Also, the geometry of deep level Deligne–Lusztig schemes gets accessible, in the spirit of Lusztig’s work [Lus76].
