Title: Bessel functions and local converse problems.

Abstract: In this talk, we will introduce a local converse conjecture, which is due to Jacquet, on determination of irreducible generic representations on p-adic GL(n) by local twisted gamma factors. We will report recent proofs on this conjecture using Bessel functions.
