Kottwitz's trace formula conjecture for regular discrete series representations
Let be the reductive group under consideration, let be a regular discrete series representation of , and let denote the stable cuspidal test function associated with as in Section. Choose a compactly supported test function , with measures satisfying , the Tamagawa measure on , and set , where . Kottwitz's trace formula conjecture. One has
This predicts that the stable trace formula with a regular discrete-series test function isolates the corresponding discrete automorphic representation's trace. The surrounding discussion establishes the analogous identity after summing over the relevant discrete-series packet, while the assertion for an individual regular discrete-series representation is presented as plausible and remains unresolved in the supplied text.
