概要 We will begin with the Shintani-Casselman-Shalika
formula for the p-adic unramified Whittaker function.
Surprisingly, it does not depend on p (in a suitable
normalization), which has no clear explanation in the
p-adic theory. To understand this phenomenon and other
features of the p-adic Whittaker function, one needs
to extend it to the q-Whittaker function, which, among
other its properties, interpolates between the p-adic
and real Whittaker functions. Moreover, another step
is needed, the q,t-theory. At this level, the Shintani
formula becomes the specialization theorem for the
difference spherical function, generalizing the basic
hypergeometric function and the Macdonald polynomials.
The q-Whittaker functions attract attention now because
of their connection with the affine flag varieties and,
possibly, the quantum Langlands program. The Shintani
formula will be introduced from scratch, including an
outline of its justification.
