Homogeneous distributions on finite dimensional vector spaces

Abstract

Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space over a local field $F$. Let $\chi: F^\times \rightarrow \mathbb C^\times$ be an arbitrary character of $F^\times$. We determine the structure of the natural representation of $\mathrm{GL}(V)$ on the space $\mathcal{S}^*(V)^\chi$ of $\chi$-invariant distributions on $V$.
