Theta correspondence and simple factors in global Arthur parameters (2208.06566v2)

Abstract: By using results on poles of $L$-functions and theta correspondence, we give a bound on $b$ for $(\chi,b)$-factors of the global Arthur parameter of a cuspidal automorphic representation $\pi$ of a classical group or a metaplectic group where $\chi$ is a conjugate self-dual automorphic character and $b$ is an integer which is the dimension of an irreducible representation of $\mathrm{SL}_{2}(\mathbf{CC})$. We derive a more precise relation when $\pi$ lies in a generic global $A$-packet.
