Howe duality conjecture for the similitude theta correspondence

Let GSp+(V4)\mathrm{GSp}^+(V_4) and GSO(U)\mathrm{GSO}(U) be the similitude groups in the local Weil representation, and let Θ~(π+)\widetilde{\Theta}(\pi^+) be the smooth theta lift associated with an irreducible admissible representation π+\pi^+ of GSp+(V4)\mathrm{GSp}^+(V_4). Define Θ(π+)\Theta(\pi^+) to be the irreducible quotient of Θ~(π+)\widetilde{\Theta}(\pi^+) when it is nonzero, and set Θ(π+)=0\Theta(\pi^+)=0 otherwise. Howe duality conjecture. For any irreducible admissible representation π+\pi^+ of GSp+(V4)\mathrm{GSp}^+(V_4), either Θ~(π+)=0\widetilde{\Theta}(\pi^+)=0 or it is an admissible finite-length representation of GSO(U)\mathrm{GSO}(U); in the latter case there is a unique GSO(U)\mathrm{GSO}(U)-invariant submodule Θ~(π+)\widetilde{\Theta}'(\pi^+) such that

Θ(π+):=Θ~(π+)/Θ~(π+)\Theta(\pi^+):=\widetilde{\Theta}(\pi^+)/\widetilde{\Theta}'(\pi^+)

is irreducible. Moreover, if Θ(π1+)\Theta(\pi_1^+) and Θ(π2+)\Theta(\pi_2^+) are both nonzero and isomorphic for two irreducible admissible representations π1+\pi_1^+ and π2+\pi_2^+, then π1+\pi_1^+ and π2+\pi_2^+ are isomorphic. Thus the theta lift is injective on isomorphism classes with nonzero image. This is the local Howe duality assertion for the similitude theta correspondence; the conjecture concerns finite length, irreducibility of the quotient, uniqueness, and injectivity of the correspondence.
