Sp(2N)-covers for self-contragredient supercuspidal representations of GL(N)

Let F be a non-archimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. Let (J,τ) be a maximal simple type in GLN(F) for the inertial class [GLN(F),π]_GLN(F) of a self-contragredient supercuspidal irreducible representation π of GLN(F). Identify GLN(F) to the standard Siegel Levi subgroup in Sp2N(F). We construct, in Sp2N(F), a type for the inertial class [GLN(F),π]_Sp2N(F), as a Sp2N(F)-cover of (J,τ), strongly related to the GL2N(F)-cover of (J×J,τ⊗τ) in GL2N(F) constructed by Bushnell and Kutzko and which induces to a simple type in GL2N(F). In the process, we show that if τ has positive level, then the maximal simple type (J,τ) may be attached to a simple stratum [A,n,0,β] where the field F[β] is a quadratic extension of F[β²], and to a simple character θ in C(A,0,β) Galois conjugate of its inverse.
