The involutive antiautomorphism conjecture for tridiagonal pairs

Assume F\mathbb F is algebraically closed. Let VV be a vector space over F\mathbb F with finite positive dimension, and let A,AA,A^* be a tridiagonal pair on VV. The involutive antiautomorphism conjecture. There exists a unique antiautomorphism \dagger of End(V)\operatorname{End}(V) that fixes both AA and AA^*, and

X=XX^{\dagger\dagger}=X

for every XEnd(V)X\in\operatorname{End}(V).

Such an antiautomorphism would provide a canonical involutive symmetry of the endomorphism algebra associated with the pair. The claim is listed among the paper's directions for extending structural results beyond Krawtchouk type.
