Lusztig constants and endoscopy
We prove that on a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over a finite field of large characteristic, if a complex-valued invariant function $f$ and its Fourier transform $\hat f$ are both supported in the nilpotent cone of $\mathfrak{g}$, then $\hat f = γ^{-1}f$ for an explicit quadratic Gauss sum $γ$. Consequently, we determine a fourth root of unity appearing in various formulae of generalised Gel'fand--Graev characters, known as Lusztig constant, previously known in special cases due to work
