Conjectural period relations for symmetric-power liftings

Let Π\mathit\Pi be the cohomological cuspidal automorphic representation under consideration, with central character ωΠ\omega_\mathit\Pi, Whittaker vector fΠf_\mathit\Pi, period p(Π,±)p(\mathit\Pi,\pm), and symmetric-power liftings SymnΠ{\rm Sym}^n\mathit\Pi equipped with periods p(SymnΠ,±)p({\rm Sym}^n\mathit\Pi,\pm) for odd nn and p(SymnΠ)p({\rm Sym}^n\mathit\Pi) for even nn. Conjectural period relations. For every n1n\geq1, there is a constant Cn,C×C_{n,\infty}\in\mathbb C^\times, unique up to Q×\mathbb Q^\times and depending only on nn and Π\mathit\Pi_\infty, such that the stated Galois-equivariance relations hold: for n=2r+1n=2r+1,

\sigma\left(\frac{p({\rm Sym}^{2r+1}\mathit\Pi},\pm)}{C_{2r+1,\infty}G(\omega_\mathit\Pi)^{2r(r+1)^2}p(\mathit\Pi,\pm)^{r+1}\lVert f_\mathit\Pi\rVert^{2r(r+1)(2r+1)/3}}\right)=\frac{p({\rm Sym}^{2r+1}{}^\sigma\!\mathit\Pi},\pm)}{C_{2r+1,\infty}G({}^\sigma\!\omega_\mathit\Pi)^{2r(r+1)^2}p({}^\sigma\!\mathit\Pi,\pm)^{r+1}\lVert f_{{}^\sigma\!\mathit\Pi}\rVert^{2r(r+1)(2r+1)/3}},

and for n=2rn=2r,

σ(p(Sym2rΠ)C2r,G(ωΠ)(2r+1)r2fΠr(r+1)(2r+1)/3)=p(Sym2rσ ⁣Π)C2r,G(σ ⁣ωΠ)(2r+1)r2fσ ⁣Πr(r+1)(2r+1)/3.\sigma\left(\frac{p({\rm Sym}^{2r}\mathit\Pi)}{C_{2r,\infty}G(\omega_\mathit\Pi)^{(2r+1)r^2}\lVert f_\mathit\Pi\rVert^{r(r+1)(2r+1)/3}}\right)=\frac{p({\rm Sym}^{2r}{}^\sigma\!\mathit\Pi)}{C_{2r,\infty}G({}^\sigma\!\omega_\mathit\Pi)^{(2r+1)r^2}\lVert f_{{}^\sigma\!\mathit\Pi}\rVert^{r(r+1)(2r+1)/3}}.

These relations are proposed as period analogues of Deligne's conjecture for critical standard LL-values of symmetric-power liftings; the source gives no resolution evidence, so the relations remain conjectural.
