The goal of this paper is to extend this theory to nonlinear two-fold covers of real groups in the simply laced case. Suppose $\tG$ is a two-fold cover of a real reductive group $G$. The main result is that there is an operation, denoted $\Lift_G^{\tG}$, taking a stable virtual character of $G$ to 0 or a virtual genuine character of $\tG$, and $\Lift_G^{\tG}(Θ_π)$ may be explicitly computed if $π$ is a stable sum of standard modules.Representation Theory22E50, 05E99text
