On compatibility in restriction of Arthur's conjecture for $R$-groups

We study the compatibility of Arthur’s conjecture for $R$-groups in the restriction of discrete series representations from Levi subgroups of a $p$-adic group to those of its closed subgroup having the same derived group. The compatibility is conditional as it holds under the conjectural local Langlands correspondence in general. This work is applied to several cases and further suggests a uniform way to verify the Arthur’s conjecture for $R$-groups in the setting.
