The weight-graded orbit-closure conjecture

Let G/PG/P and G/QG/Q be the homogeneous spaces under consideration, with Z0,,ZkZ_0,\ldots,Z_k the GG-orbits in G/P×G/QG/P\times G/Q, ordered by decreasing size. Let j:Z0G/P×G/Qj:Z_0\to G/P\times G/Q be the open-orbit inclusion, let δZ0,m\delta_{Z_0,m} be its Hodge module, and let grsW\operatorname{gr}^W_s denote the ssth weight-graded piece. Write ICZs,m\operatorname{IC}_{\overline{Z}_s,m} for the intersection-cohomology Hodge module of Zs\overline{Z}_s. Weight-graded orbit-closure conjecture. For s=0,,ks=0,\ldots,k,

grsW(jδZ0,m)=ICZs,m{s},\operatorname{gr}^W_s(j_*\delta_{Z_0,m})=\operatorname{IC}_{\overline{Z}_s,m}\{s\},

and all remaining subquotients are zero. This conjecturally identifies the weight filtration of the open-orbit push-forward with the intersection-cohomology Hodge modules of the orbit closures; the source says that techniques from an earlier section may establish it, but records no resolution.
