contents Let $G$ be a split semi-simple group over a global function field $K$. Given a cuspidal automorphic representation $Π$ of $G$ satisfying a technical hypothesis, we prove that for almost all primes $\ell$, there is a cyclic base change lifting of $Π$ along any $\mathbb{Z}/\ell\mathbb{Z}$-extension of $K$. Our proof does not rely on any trace formulas; instead it is based on modularity lifting theorems, together with a Smith theory argument to obtain base change for residual representations. As an application, we also prove that for any split semisimple group $G$ over a local function field $F$, and almost all primes $\ell$, any irreducible admissible representation of $G(F)$ admits a base change along any $\mathbb{Z}/\ell\mathbb{Z}$-extension of $F$. Finally, we characterize local base change more explicitly for a class of representations called toral supercuspidal representations.

Let $G$ be a split semi-simple group over a global function field $K$.
