In the first half of the course, we will give an introduction to Arthur’s trace formula following his Clay notes. In the second half of the course, we will talk about Raphael Beuzart-Plessis’ paper “Plancherel formula for GLn(F)\GLn(E) and applications to the Ichino-Ikeda and formal degree conjectures for unitary groups”.
