The components of representations induced from discrete series of proper parabolic subgroups are classified in terms of $R$\snug-groups. Multiplicity one is proved. The tempered elliptic spectrum is identified, and the relation between elliptic characters appearing in a given induced representation is determined. Those irreducible tempered representations which are not elliptic and not fully induced from elliptic tempered representations are described.28 pagesRepresentation TheoryNumber Theorytext
