Algebraic group
In algebraic geometry, an algebraic group is a group that is an algebraic variety, such that the multiplication and inverse are given by regular functions on the variety...

Local field
In mathematics, a local field is a special type of field that is a locally compact topological field with respect to a non-discrete topology.Given such a field, an absolute value can be defined on it. There are two basic types of local field: those in which the absolute value is archimedean and...

Iwahori subgroup
In algebra, an Iwahori subgroup is a subgroup of a reductive algebraic group over a local field that is analogous to a Borel subgroup of an algebraic group. A parahoric subgroup is a subgroup that is a finite union of double cosets of an Iwahori subgroup, so is analogous to a parabolic subgroup of...
