abstract
In this article, we examine the role of the recent banner of Spectral Reciprocity within the Langlands Beyond Endoscopy and Braverman-Kazhdan programmes. We present a novel four-variable character sum identity, which serves as a pivotal arithmetic input for the functional equations of automorphic L-functions. This identity can also be interpreted as a twisted, non-archimedean counterpart to Weber-type integrals from the theory of special functions.
