The large-slope special case of the modularity conjecture

Let E\mathcal{E} be a rank mm vector bundle on XX', let E=σHom(E,νL)\mathcal{E}'=\sigma^{*}\underline{\operatorname{Hom}}(\mathcal{E},\nu^{*}\mathfrak{L}), and suppose the maximal slope of E\mathcal{E} satisfies

μmax(E)<degLdegωX.\mu_{\max}(\mathcal{E})<\deg\mathfrak{L}-\deg\omega_X.

Then AE(k)\mathcal{A}_{\mathcal{E}'}(k) contains only the zero Hermitian map. Large-slope special case. In Chr(nm)(ShtU(n),Lr)\operatorname{Ch}_{r(n-m)}(\operatorname{Sht}^{r}_{U(n),\mathfrak{L}}), one has

η(L)mnqn(degEmdegL)aAE(k)ζ[ZEr(a)]=ζ[ZEr(0)].\eta(\mathfrak{L})^{mn}q^{n(\deg\mathcal{E}-m\deg\mathfrak{L})}\sum_{a\in\mathcal{A}_{\mathcal{E}}(k)}\zeta_{*}[\mathcal{Z}^{r}_{\mathcal{E}}(a)]=\zeta_{*}[\mathcal{Z}^{r}_{\mathcal{E}'}(0)].

This is a further specialization of the split Lagrangian form of the modularity conjecture, obtained when the opposite Hermitian-map space has only its zero element; it remains a conjectural identity unless separately proved in the source.
