Engliš–Peetre conjecture on higher Laplacians for Hermitian symmetric spaces

Let X=G/KX=G/K be a simple Hermitian symmetric space, where KK is a compact subgroup of GG. For each mNm\in\mathbb{N}, let LmL_m denote the higher Laplacian of order 2m2m on XX, with L1L_1 the Laplace–Beltrami operator. Engliš–Peetre conjecture. The operators LmL_m, mNm\in\mathbb{N}, generate the whole algebra DG(X)\mathbb{D}_G(X) of GG-invariant differential operators on XX. The conjecture proposes a geometrically defined generating set for invariant differential operators on Hermitian symmetric spaces; the supplied text gives no indication that it has been resolved.
