The functional-equation conjecture for normal zeta functions of Heisenberg groups

From papers

Let KK be a number field, let gg be the number of primes of KK above a rational prime, and let (e,f)Ng×Ng(\mathbf{e},\mathbf{f})\in\mathbb{N}^g\times\mathbb{N}^g satisfy

i=1geifi=n.\sum_{i=1}^g e_i f_i=n.

Here We,f(X,Y)W^\vartriangleleft_{\mathbf{e},\mathbf{f}}(X,Y) denotes the corresponding local normal zeta-function factor for the Heisenberg group over the number ring of KK. Functional-equation conjecture. For all primes, one has

We,f(X1,Y1)=(1)3nX(3n2)Y5n+i=1g2(ei1)fiWe,f(X,Y).W^\vartriangleleft_{\mathbf{e}, \mathbf{f}}(X^{-1},Y^{-1}) = (-1)^{3n} X^{\binom{3n}{2}} Y^{5n + \sum_{i=1}^g 2(e_i - 1)f_i} W^\vartriangleleft_{\mathbf{e}, \mathbf{f}}(X,Y).

This predicts functional equations for the local normal zeta functions of Heisenberg groups over number rings at every rational prime, extending the known result for all but finitely many primes and the established formulae at unramified and non-split primes. The claim is refuted in the stated generality: such a functional equation at all primes does not hold in general.
