Abstract
<?Pub Inc> Around 1990, Arthur proved a local (ordinary) trace formula for real or p-adic connected reductive groups. The local trace formula is a powerful tool in the local harmonic analysis of reductive groups. One of the aims of this thesis is to establish a local twisted trace formula for certain non-connected reductive groups, which is a twisted version of Arthur's local trace formula [10]. As an application of the local twisted trace formula, we will prove some twisted orthogonality relations, which are generalizations of Arthur's results about orthogonality relations for tempered elliptic characters [11]. To establish these relations, we will also give a classification of twisted elliptic representations.
