Associated to a complex admissible representation of a p-adic group is an invariant known is the "canonical dimension". It is closely related to the more well-studied invariant called the "wavefront set". The advantage of the canonical dimension over the wavefront set is that it allows for a completely different approach in computing it compared to the known computational methods for the wavefront set. In this talk we illustrate this point by finding a lower bound for the canonical dimension of any depth-zero supercuspidal representation, which depends only on the group and so is independent of the representation itself. To compute this lower bound, we consider the geometry of the associated Bruhat-Tits building.
