Ohno–Nakagawa duality conjecture for symmetric 2×n×n2\times n\times n boxes

Let KK be a local field of characteristic different from 22, let nn be odd, and let τ\tau be a divisor of 22. For a binary nn-ic form ff, let Vτ,τn1f\mathcal V_{\tau,\tau^{n-1}f} denote the corresponding lattice of symmetric boxes and let gτ,f:H1(K,M)Ng_{\tau,f}:H^1(K,M)\mathop{\rightarrow}\limits\mathbb N be the local orbit counter sending α\alpha to the number of self-balanced ideals JRf,KJ\subseteq R_{f,K} representing it.

Local Ohno–Nakagawa box conjecture. The lattices Vτ,τn1f\mathcal V_{\tau,\tau^{n-1}f} and V2τ1,(2τ1)n1f\mathcal V_{2\tau^{-1},(2\tau^{-1})^{n-1}f} are naturally dual with duality constant q(n1)vK(τ)q^{(n-1)v_K(\tau)}. Equivalently,

g^τ,f=OK/τOKn1g2τ1,4f.\widehat g_{\tau,f}=|\mathcal O_K/\tau\mathcal O_K|^{n-1}\,g_{2\tau^{-1},4f}.

This is the local reflection statement underlying the proposed global Ohno–Nakagawa theorem for odd nn; it remains conjectural in the paper.
