Uniqueness conjecture for the submodule series of the Weyl module

Let G=SO(2n+1,F)G=\operatorname{SO}(2n+1,\mathbb{F}) over a field F\mathbb{F} of characteristic 22, and let VF(λk)V_\mathbb{F}(\lambda_k^\circ) be the Weyl module containing the submodules

0M0M1Mk=VF(λk),0\subset M_0\subset M_1\subset\cdots\subset M_k=V_\mathbb{F}(\lambda_k^\circ),

where Mi=Yui+1Yui+2Yuk(v+)M_i=Y_{u_{i+1}}Y_{u_{i+2}}\cdots Y_{u_k}(v^+) as in, and where M1:=0M_{-1}:=0. The series satisfies MiVF(λi)M_i\cong V_\mathbb{F}(\lambda_i^\circ) for i=0,1,,ki=0,1,\ldots,k and Mi/Mi2Wi(F)M_i/M_{i-2}\cong W_i^\circ(\mathbb{F}) for i=1,2,,ki=1,2,\ldots,k. Uniqueness conjecture. The series of submodules defined as in is the unique series of GG-submodules of VF(λk)V_\mathbb{F}(\lambda_k^\circ) satisfying these two conditions. The conjecture concerns the uniqueness of the submodule structure established in the paper; it remains open because the authors do not know whether VF(λk)V_\mathbb{F}(\lambda_k^\circ) is rigid as a GG-module.
