Compatibility conjecture for ordinary and modular Harish-Chandra series in finite unitary groups

Let GG be the finite unitary group and let Xμ,XνX_\mu,X_\nu be the unipotent kGkG-modules labelled by partitions μ,νPn\mu,\nu\in\mathcal{P}_n, while Yμ,YνY_\mu,Y_\nu are the corresponding unipotent KGKG-modules. Compatibility conjecture. If XμX_\mu and XνX_\nu lie in the same weak Harish-Chandra series of kGkG-modules, then μ\mu and ν\nu have the same 22-core; equivalently, YμY_\mu and YνY_\nu lie in the same Harish-Chandra series of KGKG-modules. Thus the partition arising from weak \ell-modular Harish-Chandra series is a refinement of the partition arising from ordinary Harish-Chandra series. This predicts compatibility between the ordinary and modular Harish-Chandra-series decompositions; no resolution is supplied in the source.
