An explicit conductor formula for ${\rm GL}_n \times {\rm GL}_1$

Abstract

We prove an explicit formula for the conductor of an irreducible, admissible representation of ${\rm GL}_n(F)$ twisted by a character of $F^{\times}$ where the field $F$ is local and non-archimedean. As a consequence, we quantify the number of character twists of such a representation of fixed conductor.
