In this paper we generalize a new type of limiters based on the weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) finite volume methodology for the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) methods solving nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws, which were recently developed for structured meshes, to two-dimensional unstructured triangular meshes. The key idea of such limiters is to use the entire polynomials of the DG solutions from the troubled cell and its immediate neighboring cells, and then apply the classical WENO procedure to form a convex combination of these polynomials based on smoothness indicators and nonlinear weights, with suitable adjustments to guarantee conservation. The main advantage of this new limiter is its simplicity in implementation, especially for the unstructured meshes considered in this paper, as only information from immediate neighbors is needed and the usage of complicated geometric information of the meshes is largely avoided. Numerical results for both scalar equations and Euler systems of compressible gas dynamics are provided to illustrate the good performance of this procedure.

In [2], J. Arthur classifies the automorphic discrete spectrum of symplectic groups up to global Arthur packets. We continue with our investigation of Fourier coefficients and their implication to the structure of the cuspidal spectrum for symplectic groups ([16] and [20]). As result, we obtain certain characterization and construction of small cuspidal automorphic representations and gain a better understanding of global Arthur packets and of the structure of local unramified components of the cuspidal spectrum, which has impacts to the generalized Ramanujan problem as posted by P. Sarnak in [43].
