Parabolically induced representations of $p$-adic $G_2$ distinguished by $\mathrm{SO}_4$
I will explain how the Geometric Lemma allows us to classify parabolically induced representations of the $p$-adic group $G_2$ distinguished by $\mathrm{SO}_4$. In particular, I will describe a new approach, in progress, where we use the structure of the $p$-adic octonions and their quaternionic subalgebras to describe the double coset space $P \backslash G_2/\mathrm{SO}_4$, where $P$ stands for the maximal parabolic subgroups of $G_2$.
