This provides a decomposition of the invariant trace formula for metaplectic groups, which encodes information about the genuine $L^2$-automorphic spectrum, into a linear combination of stable trace formulas of products of split odd orthogonal groups via endoscopic transfer. By adapting the strategies of Arthur and Moeglin-Waldspurger from the linear case, the proof is built on a long induction process that mixes up local and global, geometric and spectral data. As a by-product, we also stabilize the local trace formula for metaplectic groups over any local field of characteristic zero.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-09-14T11:05:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F72", "11F27", "11F70" ], "keywords": [ "metaplectic groups", "stabilization", "full arthur-selberg trace formula", "split odd orthogonal groups", "local trace formula" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 322, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
