Nil-projection conjecture for double flag varieties

Let X\mathfrak{X} be a double flag variety of finite type, with projection

ϕs:Ys.\phi_{\mathfrak{s}}:\mathcal{Y}\to\mathfrak{s}.

Let Ns\mathcal{N}_{\mathfrak{s}} denote the nilpotent variety in s\mathfrak{s}. Nil-projection conjecture. The image of ϕs\phi_{\mathfrak{s}} is contained in Ns\mathcal{N}_{\mathfrak{s}}.

No counterexample is known, and the claim holds in the cases established by the cited propositions; its validity for all double flag varieties of finite type remains open.
