On Galois representations and Hilbert-Siegel modular forms
Abstract
Description
In this paper, we associate Galois representations to globally generic cuspidal automorphic representations on GSp(4), over a totally real field F, which are Steinberg at some finite place. This association is compatible with the local Langlands correspondence for GSp(4) studied recently in a preprint of Gan and Takeda. As a corollary, we relate the rank of the monodromy operator at p to the dimensions of the parahoric fixed spaces at p. The Galois representations are constructed by first passing to GL(4) over a CM extension, then applying the book of Harris-Taylor plus a refinement due to Taylor-Yoshida, and finally descending to F by a delicate patching argument. This is a variation of the techniques used by Blasius and Rogawski in order to attach motives to Hilbert modular forms.
