Lusztig's double-coset conjecture for minimally dominant elements

About 5 years old · traced to

Let WW be the Weyl group of a maximal torus contained in a Borel subgroup BB of a twisted reductive group over an algebraically closed field. Let ww be a minimal-length element of WW, let w′w' be a minimally dominant element in the conjugacy class of ww, and let CC be a conjugacy class of the reductive group. Lusztig's double-coset conjecture.

C∩BwB≠∅if and only ifC∩Bw′B≠∅.C\cap BwB\neq\varnothing\qquad\textrm{if and only if}\qquad C\cap Bw'B\neq\varnothing.

The claim proposes that replacing a minimal-length Weyl-group representative by a minimally dominant representative preserves which conjugacy classes meet the corresponding Bruhat double coset; the supplied text labels it among open problems.
