The topological cusp forms conjecture for Mathieu Moonshine

Let Tcf\mathrm{Tcf}^\bullet be the spectrum of topological cusp forms, and let [Vf]ν[\overline{V^{f\natural}}]\nu denote the M24\mathrm M_{24}-equivariant class refining the nonequivariant cusp-form class {24Δ}ν=0Tmf27(pt)\{24\Delta\}\nu=0\in\mathrm{Tmf}^{-27}(\mathrm{pt}). Topological cusp forms conjecture. The class is M24\mathrm M_{24}-equivariantly nullhomotopic in Tcf\mathrm{Tcf}^\bullet:

[Vf]ν0.[\overline{V^{f\natural}}]\nu\simeq 0.

This conjecture is proposed to encode the optimal-growth, or mock-cusp-form, property of Mathieu Moonshine. No proof or disproof is supplied.
