The umbral moonshine shadow conjecture

Let Λ={2,3,4,5,7,13}\Lambda=\{2,3,4,5,7,13\}, let gG()g\in G^{(\ell)}, and let Hg()=(Hg,r())H^{(\ell)}_g=(H^{(\ell)}_{g,r}) be the vector-valued mock modular form obtained from the graded supertrace functions for 0<r<0<r<\ell. Let S()=(Sr())S^{(\ell)}=(S^{(\ell)}_r) be the associated vector-valued theta series, let χg,r()\chi^{(\ell)}_{g,r} be determined by the twisted Euler characters, and let ngn_g be the order of the image of gg in Gˉ()\bar G^{(\ell)}. Umbral moonshine shadow conjecture. For fixed Λ\ell\in\Lambda and gG()g\in G^{(\ell)}, the functions Hg,r()H^{(\ell)}_{g,r} are the components of a weight-1/21/2 vector-valued mock modular form on Γ0(ng)\Gamma_0(n_g) with shadow

Sg()=(Sg,r())=(χg,r()Sr()),S^{(\ell)}_g=(S^{(\ell)}_{g,r})=(\chi^{(\ell)}_{g,r}S^{(\ell)}_r),

where χg,r()=χˉg()\chi^{(\ell)}_{g,r}=\bar\chi^{(\ell)}_g for odd rr and χg,r()=χg()\chi^{(\ell)}_{g,r}=\chi^{(\ell)}_g for even rr. This conjecture specifies the modular shadows predicted for the graded supertraces; the source presents it as an unproved consequence of the broader umbral moonshine picture.
