This work is on extending the invariant trace formula from the connected to the disconnected case. \textit{James Arthur} has proved the invariant trace formula for all connected reductive groups and certain disconnected groups [J. Am. Math. Soc. 1, No. 2, 323-383 (1988; Zbl 0682.10021), J. Am. Math. Soc. 1, No. 3, 501-554 (1988; Zbl 0667.10019)]. Assuming the trace Paley-Wiener theorem at the infinite places and an argument in Galois cohomology, Arthur's proof applies to the general case. The paper under consideration supplies the missing argument in Galois cohomology and, assuming the validity of the trace Paley-Wiener theorem, proves that all the distributions which occur in the invariant trace formula are supported on characters. This is the crucial fact in proving the invariant trace formula.
