The hypergeometric description conjecture for classical-group de Rham local systems

Let GG) be one of the classical groups under consideration, with standard representation Std\mathrm{Std}, and let (δ=0,μ=ρ×ϕ)(\delta=0,\mu=\rho\times\phi) be rigid hypergeometric automorphic data. Write the parameters of ρ\rho as ρ1,,ρnm\rho_1,\dots,\rho_{n-m}, and let \Hypλ\Hyp_\lambda denote the corresponding hypergeometric local system. Hypergeometric description conjecture. There exists a λC×\lambda\in\mathbb{C}^{\times}, depending on ϕ\phi, such that

\cE\SO2n+1\dR(0,μ)(\Std)\Hypλ(0;ρ1,,ρnm,ρ1,,ρnm,1/2),\cE^{\dR}_{\SO_{2n+1}}(0,\mu)(\Std)\simeq\Hyp_\lambda(\underline{0};\rho_1,\dots,\rho_{n-m},-\rho_1,\dots,-\rho_{n-m},1/2), \cE\Sp2n\dR(0,μ)(\Std)\Hypλ(0;ρ1,,ρnm,ρ1,,ρnm),\cE^{\dR}_{\Sp_{2n}}(0,\mu)(\Std)\simeq\Hyp_\lambda(\underline{0};\rho_1,\dots,\rho_{n-m},-\rho_1,\dots,-\rho_{n-m}),

and, for d=2m>n+1d=2m>n+1,

\cE\SO2n+2\dR(0,μ)(\Std)\cE\SO2n+1\dR(0,μ)(\Std)(OGm,d).\cE^{\dR}_{\SO_{2n+2}}(0,\mu)(\Std)\simeq\cE^{\dR}_{\SO_{2n+1}}(0,\mu)(\Std)\oplus(\mathscr{O}_{\mathbb{G}_m},d).

These formulas would give an explicit description of the de Rham local systems attached to standard representations of the classical groups and imply the expected functoriality of their Hecke eigenvalues under the relevant pushouts. The source does not provide evidence that the conjecture has been proved or disproved.
