Convolution exhaustion conjecture for mirabolic character sheaves

About 18 years old · traced to

Let DD be a vector space, and let VV and WW be vector spaces with dim⁡(V)+dim⁡(W)=dim⁡(D)\dim(V)+\dim(W)=\dim(D). Let \CG∈\calC(GL⁡(V))\CG\in\calC(\operatorname{GL}(V)) and \CG′∈\calC(GL⁡(W))\CG'\in\calC(\operatorname{GL}(W)), and let Q‾‾l{{\underline{\overline{\mathbb Q}}}{}_l} denote the unique equivariant mirabolic character sheaf for the zero-dimensional vector space. Convolution exhaustion conjecture. Any irreducible \Gm\Gm-equivariant mirabolic character sheaf on GL⁡(D)×D\operatorname{GL}(D)\times D is isomorphic to

\CG∗Q‾‾l∗\CG′\CG*{{\underline{\overline{\mathbb Q}}}{}_l}*\CG'

for some such \CG\CG and \CG′\CG'. This asserts that all irreducible equivariant mirabolic character sheaves arise from the convolution construction; the supplied text gives no evidence that the conjecture has been resolved.
