Tempered representation

Tempered representations are a concept from the field of representation theory, particularly in the context of reductive groups over local fields. They are an important part of the harmonic analysis on groups and play a vital role in the study of automorphic forms and number theory. In more detail: 1. **Context**: Tempered representations arise in the study of the representations of reductive groups over a local field (like the p-adic numbers or the real numbers).
