Micro-packets for real groups of type $G_2$

Abstract

In their study of Arthur's conjectures for real groups, Adams, Barbasch, and Vogan introduced the notion of micro-packets. Micro-packets are finite sets of irreducible representations defined using microlocal geometric methods and characteristic cycles. We explore an action of the Weyl group on characteristic cycles to compute all micro-packets of real groups of type $G_2$.
