Rademacher-sum conjecture for umbral McKay–Thompson series

Let XX be a Niemeier root system and let gGXg\in G^X. Let HˇgX\check{H}^X_g denote the vector formed by the components of HgXH^X_g indexed by 0<r<m0<r<m, and let RΓ0(ng),νˇgXXR^X_{\Gamma_0(n_g),\check{\nu}^X_g} be the associated vector-valued Rademacher sum. For X=A83X=A_8^3, let tˇg(9)\check{t}^{(9)}_g be the vector-valued theta series formed from the components tg,r(9)t^{(9)}_{g,r} with 0<r<90<r<9. Rademacher-sum conjecture. If XA83X\neq A_8^3, or if X=A83X=A_8^3 and gGXg\in G^X does not satisfy o(g)0(mod3)o(g)\equiv0\pmod3, then

HˇgX(τ)=2RΓ0(ng),νˇgXX(τ).\check{H}^X_g(\tau)=-2R^X_{\Gamma_0(n_g),\check{\nu}^X_g}(\tau).

If X=A83X=A_8^3 and gGXg\in G^X satisfies o(g)0(mod3)o(g)\equiv0\pmod3, then

Hˇg,rX(τ)=2RΓ0(ng),νˇgXX(τ)+tˇg(9)(τ).\check{H}^X_{g,r}(\tau)=-2R^X_{\Gamma_0(n_g),\check{\nu}^X_g}(\tau)+\check{t}^{(9)}_g(\tau).

This replaces the earlier optimal-growth formulation and expresses the umbral McKay–Thompson series through Rademacher sums, with an additional theta-series correction in the exceptional A83A_8^3 case. The supplied text does not state a resolution.
