Conjecture on the tempered positive-energy interpretation of the crossed-product K-group

Let GG be a semisimple Lie group with maximal compact subgroup KK. Let τGG\tau_G^G and τKK\tau_K^K be the relevant twistings, let Λkh(K)\Lambda^*_{k-\textsf{h}^\vee}(K) be the indicated set of weights, and let WμW_\mu and VμV_\mu denote the corresponding positive energy representation and KK-representation. Define

q:KK(K,τKK)K(Γ0(τGG)G).q:K_K^\bullet(K,\tau_K^K)\longrightarrow K_\bullet(\Gamma_0(\tau_G^G)\rtimes G).

Tempered positive-energy conjecture. The KK-group K(Γ0(τGG)G)K_\bullet(\Gamma_0(\tau_G^G)\rtimes G) reflects the tempered, positive energy representations of LGLG in a suitable sense, and the map qq is given by

q([Wμ])=Ind(\slashedLG/KVμ),μΛkh(K).q([W_\mu])=\operatorname{Ind}(\slashed{\partial}_{LG/K}\otimes V_\mu),\qquad \mu\in\Lambda^*_{k-\textsf{h}^\vee}(K).

The conjecture is motivated by the Freed–Hopkins–Teleman theorem, the stated theorem describing the reduced crossed-product KK-group, and the associated commutative diagram. The source does not state a resolution.
