Popis: For $q$ a power of a prime $p$, we study gamma factors of representations of $GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic $\ell \neq p$. We show that the reduction mod $\ell$ of the gamma factor defined in characteristic zero fails to satisfy the analogue of the local converse theorem of Piatetski-Shapiro. To remedy this, we construct gamma factors valued in arbitrary $\mathbb{Z}[1/p, \zeta_p]$-algebras $A$, where $\zeta_p$ is a primitive $p$-th root of unity, for Whittaker-type representations $\rho$ and $\pi$ of $GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$ and $GL_m(\mathbb{F}_q)$ over $A$. We let $P(\pi)$ be the projective envelope of $\pi$ and let $R(\pi)$ be its endomorphism ring and define new gamma factors $\widetilde\gamma(\rho \times \pi) = \gamma((\rho\otimes_kR(\pi)) \times P(\pi))$, which take values in the local Artinian $k$-algebra $R(\pi)$. We prove a converse theorem for cuspidal representations using the new gamma factors. When $n=2$ and $m=1$ we construct a different ``new'' gamma factor $\gamma^{\ell}(\rho,\pi)$, which takes values in $k$ and satisfies a converse theorem.
