Abstract
Suppose $G$ is a real reductive algebraic group, $\theta$ is an automorphism of $G$, and $\omega$ is a quasicharacter of the group of real points $G(\mathbf {R})$. Under some additional assumptions, the theory of twisted endoscopy associates to this triple real reductive groups $H$. The Local Langlands Correspondence partitions the admissible representations of $H(\mathbf {R})$ and $G(\mathbf {R})$ into $L$-packets. We prove twisted character identities between $L$-packets of $H(\mathbf {R})$ and $G(\mathbf {R})$ comprised of essential discrete series or limits of discrete series.- J. Arthur.
