“…As a special case of Langlands functoriality, one then expects that if L S (s, π, Spin) has a simple pole at s = 1, π is a functorial lift from either G 2 or G c 2 , where recall that G c 2 denotes the form of G 2 which is compact at ∞ and split at all finite places of Q. We invite the reader to consult [21], [17], [48], and [18] for results in this direction. In particular, using results of [11], [18] and [41], one deduces the following.…”
