Spectral decomposition conjecture for Hecke operators on half-densities

About 3 years old · traced to

Let CC be a smooth proper curve over a non-archimedean local field KK, let GG be a split reductive group, and let H(C)H(C) be the commutative algebra of Hecke operators acting on the Schwartz space of half-densities

W=S(Bun⁡G,∣ω∣1/2),\mathcal W={\mathcal S}({\operatorname{Bun}}_G,|\omega|^{1/2}),

where Bun⁡G=Bun⁡‾G(K){\operatorname{Bun}}_G=\underline{{\operatorname{Bun}}}_G(K). For each homomorphism s:H(C)→Cs:H(C)\to\mathbb C, define

Ws(C)={w∈W(C)∣hw=s(h)w},\mathcal W_s(C)=\{w\in\mathcal W(C)\mid hw=s(h)w\},

and let S(C)S(C) be the set of such ss for which Ws(C)≠{0}\mathcal W_s(C)\ne\{0\}. Spectral decomposition conjecture. The Hecke eigenspaces exhaust and direct-sum decompose the space:

⨁s∈S(C)Ws(C)=W(C).\bigoplus_{s\in S(C)}\mathcal W_s(C)=\mathcal W(C).

This conjecture asserts a discrete spectral decomposition for the commuting Hecke operators. The supplied text gives no resolution or partial result for this decomposition, so its status remains open.
