Abstract: Let $G$ be a classical group defined over a local field $F$ of characteristic zero. Let $pi$ be an irreducible admissible representation $pi$ of $G(F)$, which is of Casselman-Wallach type if $F$ is archimedean. If $pi$ has a generic local $L$-parameter, we define the arithmetic wavefront set $mW{F}_{ari}(pi)$ of $pi$, which is a subset of $F$-rational nilpotent orbits of the Lie algebra $mathfrakg(F)$ of $G(F)$, by means of the arithmetic structures of the enhanced $L$-parameter $(varphi,chi)$ of $pi$. Those arithmetic structures are discovered by using our method of consecutive descents of enhanced $L$-parameters, based on the rationality of the local Langlands correspondence and the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture. We study the basic structure of $mW{F}_{ari}(pi)$ and prove that it is an invariant of $pi$ (Theorem 5.10). The basic structures of $mW{F}_{ari}(pi{)}^{max}$ are described by Conjecture 1.3, which asserts that the $F$-rational structure of $mW{F}_{ari}(pi{)}^{max}$ can be completely determined by our method of consecutive descents of enhanced $L$-parameters. When $F$ is archimedean, Theorems 1.4 and 1.5 confirm much refined $F$-rational structure on $mW{F}_{ari}(pi{)}^{max}$ than what Conjecture 1.3 says. Based on the local Langlands reciprocity, Conjecture 1.2 asserts that the wavefront sets on the $L$-parameter side should be closed related to those on the representation side, namely, [ { m WF_{wm}(pi)^{max}}={ m WF_{ari}(pi)^{max}}={ m WF_{tr}(pi)^{max}} ] when $pi$ has a generic local $L$-parameter, where the algebraic wavefront set $mW{F}_{wm}(pi)$ is defined by Moeglin and Waldspurger [MW87] using generalized Whittaker models, and the analytic wavefront set $mW{F}_{tr}(pi)$ is defined by Howe [H81, Hd85] using distribution characters, and also by [H74, HC78, BV80]. Conjecture 1.2 is verified for families of interesting cases.
