We discuss two versions of the Hecke algebra of a locally profinite group G, one that is complex valued and one that is p-adic valued. We reproduce several results which are well known for the complex valued Hecke algebra for the p-adic valued Hecke algebra. Specifically we show the equivalence of smooth representations of G and smooth modules of the Hecke algebra of G. We specialize to the group G=GLn(F) for F an extension of Qp, and show that the spherical Hecke algebra of G is finitely generated, and exhibit its generators. This is a standard fact for the complex valued Hecke algebra that we reproduce for the p-adic valued case. We then show that the spherical Hecke algebra of SLnF is isomorphic to a subalgebra of the spherical Hecke algebra of GLnF. Then a character of the spherical Hecke algebra ofGLn(F) can also be viewed as a character of the spherical Hecke algebra of SLn(F). Therefore such a character has two induced modules, one for the Hecke algebra of GLn(F) and another for the Hecke algebra of SLn(F). Theorem 3.4.3 and corollary 3.4.4give a condition under which the coinduced and induced modules of such a character areisomorphic as vector spaces.

Graded Hecke algebras are deformations of skew group algebras which arise from a group acting on a polynomial ring. Over fields of characteristic zero, these deformations have been studied in depth and include both symplectic reflection algebras and rational Cherednik algebras as examples. In Lusztig's graded affine Hecke algebras, the action of the group is deformed, but not the commutativity of the vectors. In Drinfeld's Hecke algebras, the commutativity of the vectors is deformed, but not the action of the group. Lusztig's algebras are all isomorphic to Drinfeld's algebras in the nonmodular setting. We find new deformations in the modular setting, i.e., when the characteristic of the underlying field divides the order of the group. We use Poincare-Birkhoff-Witt conditions to classify these deformations arising from the symmetric group acting on a polynomial ring in arbitrary characteristic, including the modular case.
