Cooper's support-variety conjecture for tilting modules

From papers

Let GG be a semisimple simply connected algebraic group over a field of characteristic pp, with Frobenius kernel G1G_1, weight lattice X(T)X(T), and nilpotent cone N=N(G)\mathcal{N}=\mathcal{N}(G). For λX(T)+\lambda\in X(T)_+, define

Γλ={αΦ+λ+ρ,αp},\Gamma_{\lambda}=\{\alpha\in\Phi^+\mid\langle\lambda+\rho,\alpha\rangle\geq p\},

and let s(λ)s(\lambda) be the supremum of the partitions associated with positive subroot systems contained in Γλ\Gamma_{\lambda}; write s(λ)ts(\lambda)^t for its transpose and Os(λ)t\mathcal{O}_{s(\lambda)^t} for the corresponding nilpotent orbit. Let T(λ)T(\lambda) be the indecomposable tilting module of highest weight λ\lambda. Cooper's conjecture. For every λX(T)+\lambda\in X(T)_+,

VG1(T(λ))=Os(λ)t.V_{G_1}(T(\lambda))=\overline{\mathcal{O}_{s(\lambda)^t}}.

The source describes this as a more general conjecture with no assumption on pp and notes that it was verified for p=2p=2 by Cooper; its general status is otherwise open.
