Local theta-lift identities for archimedean long root AA-packets of G2\boldsymbol{\rm G}_2

Let FF be an archimedean local field, let GG be the group of type G2\mathsf{G}_2, and let K/FK/F be the quadratic algebra used to define GJG'_J. Let χ:K×S1\chi:K^\times\to S^1 be a unitary conjugate-symplectic character, let τ\tau be its automorphic induction to an irreducible smooth representation of PGL2(F)\operatorname{PGL}_2(F), and let π+\pi^+ be the unique irreducible quotient of iQG(τ1/2)i_Q^G(\tau|\cdot|^{1/2}). When KK is a field, write π\pi^- for the irreducible discrete series representation with Harish--Chandra parameter ((N+1)/2,(N1)/2,N)((|N|+1)/2,(|N|-1)/2,-|N|), and let σ±\sigma^\pm be the associated representations of GJ(F)G'_J(F). Let Ω\Omega be the minimal representation of G~(F)\widetilde{G}(F) and let θ()\theta(-) denote the exceptional theta lift. Local theta-lift identities. One has θ(σ+)π+\theta(\sigma^+)\cong\pi^+ and

dimHom(G×GJ)(F)(Ω,σ+π+)=1.\dim\operatorname{Hom}_{(G\times G'_J)(F)}(\Omega,\sigma^+\otimes\pi^+)=1.

If KK is a field and GJG'_J is anisotropic, then θ(σ)π\theta(\sigma^-)\cong\pi^- and

dimHom(G×GJ)(F)(Ω,σπ)=1.\dim\operatorname{Hom}_{(G\times G'_J)(F)}(\Omega,\sigma^-\otimes\pi^-)=1.

If KK is a field and GJG'_J is quasi-split, then θ(σ)=0\theta(\sigma^-)=0. These are local structural identities describing the archimedean members of the packet; the supplied text gives no evidence that they are conjectural or resolved.
