The associated-variety equality conjecture for discretely decomposable restrictions

Let GG be a real reductive Lie group with Lie algebra g\mathfrak{g}, let GG' be a reductive subgroup with Lie algebra g\mathfrak{g}', and let XX be the underlying (g,K)(\mathfrak{g},K)-module of a unitary representation. Denote its associated variety by VgC(X)\mathcal{V}_{\mathfrak{g}_{\mathbb{C}}}(X), and write

prgg:gC(gC)\operatorname{pr}_{\mathfrak{g}\to\mathfrak{g}'}:\mathfrak{g}_{\mathbb{C}}^*\to(\mathfrak{g}'_{\mathbb{C}})^*

for the natural projection dual to gCgC\mathfrak{g}'_{\mathbb{C}}\hookrightarrow\mathfrak{g}_{\mathbb{C}}. Theorem 5.2.1 gives the inclusion of the projected associated variety into the associated variety of any irreducible g\mathfrak{g}'-module occurring in XX.

Associated-variety equality conjecture. The inclusion in that theorem is equality:

prgg(VgC(X))=VgC(Y).\operatorname{pr}_{\mathfrak{g}\to\mathfrak{g}'}\bigl(\mathcal{V}_{\mathfrak{g}_{\mathbb{C}}}(X)\bigr)=\mathcal{V}_{\mathfrak{g}'_{\mathbb{C}}}(Y).

The claim is presented as plausible after a necessary inclusion obtained from homomorphisms of Harish-Chandra modules. The supplied text gives no resolution status.
