An automorphic form is a well-behaved function from a topological group $G$ to the complex numbers (or complex vector space) which is invariant under the action of a discrete subgroup $\Gamma \subset G$ of the topological group. Automorphic forms are a generalization of the idea of periodic functions in Euclidean space to general topological groups.

New Geometric Methods in Number Theory and Automorphic Forms

To complement Joel's wonderful and (as far as I understand) very much on point answer, let me quote from the proposal for the parallel program on Geometric Representation Theory, which touches on seve …

To elaborate on Marty's comment, the simple moral one learns from both the Kazhdan-Lusztig classification of tamely ramified representations and the real local Langlands classification is that L-packe …

Why is Langlands functoriality usually related with period integral in a third group?

I'm not close to familiar enough with the references you cite or examples you ask about to address them, but here's a picture coming out of Sakellaridis and Venkatesh [SV]. Let us label a period not b …
