General version of James' conjecture for exceptional Hecke algebras

From papers

Let WW be a finite Weyl group, let Hk(W,ξ)\mathcal H_k(W,\xi) be its Hecke algebra over a field kk with parameter ξ\xi, and let e<e<\infty satisfy the standing assumptions char(k)=>0\operatorname{char}(k)=\ell>0 and that \ell is a good prime for WW. Assume that ee\ell does not divide any degree of WW. Let Λ\Lambda index the Specht modules WξλW_\xi^\lambda and let LξμL_\xi^\mu denote the irreducible modules indexed by μΛξ=Λζe\mu\in\Lambda_\xi^\circ=\Lambda_{\zeta_e}^\circ. General version of James' conjecture. The decomposition matrix DξD_\xi depends only on ee; equivalently, the adjustment matrix AξeA_\xi^e is the identity, so that

(Wξλ:Lξμ)=(Wζeλ:Lζeμ)(W_\xi^\lambda:L_\xi^\mu)=(W_{\zeta_e}^\lambda:L_{\zeta_e}^\mu)

for all λΛ\lambda\in\Lambda and μΛξ=Λζe\mu\in\Lambda_\xi^\circ=\Lambda_{\zeta_e}^\circ. The conjecture is a generalization of James' type-AA prediction to Hecke algebras of finite Weyl groups; the supplied text records the necessary indexing-set equality but gives no resolution of the conjecture itself.
