A categorical approach to the stable center conjecture

Let G be a connected reductive group over a local non-archimedean field F. The stable center conjecture provides an intrinsic decomposition of the set of equivalence classes of smooth irreducible representations of G(F), which is only slightly coarser than the conjectural decomposition into L-packets. In this work we propose a way to verify this conjecture for depth zero representations. As an illustration of our method, we show that the Bernstein projector to the depth zero spectrum is stable.
