Toward the endoscopic classification of unipotent representations of $p$-adic $G_2$

We begin this paper by reviewing the Langlands correspondence for unipotent representations of the exceptional group of type $G_2$ over a $p$-adic field $F$ and present it in an explicit form. Then we compute all ABV-packets, as defined in [CFM+21] following ideas from Vogans 1993 paper The local Langlands Conjecture, and prove that these packets satisfy properties derived from the expectation that they are generalized A-packets. We attach distributions to ABV-packets for $G_2$ and its endoscopic groups and study a geometric endoscopic transfer of these distributions. This paper builds on earlier work by the same authors.
