Arhancet's Hodge–Dirac functional-calculus conjecture

Let GG be a Lie group of polynomial volume growth, generated by vector fields X1,,XmX_1,\ldots,X_m, and let \slashedDp\slashed{D}_p be the LpL^p realization of the Hodge–Dirac operator on

Lp(G)pLp(G,mp).\mathrm{L}^p(G)\oplus_p\mathrm{L}^p(G,\ell^p_m).

For 0<θ<π20<\theta<\frac{\pi}{2}, let Σθ±\Sigma_\theta^\pm denote a bisector of angle θ\theta. Arhancet's conjecture. If 1<p<1<p<\infty and p2p\ne2, then \slashedDp\slashed{D}_p is bisectorial and admits a bounded H(Σθ±)\mathrm{H}^\infty(\Sigma_\theta^\pm) functional calculus on Lp(G)pLp(G,mp)\mathrm{L}^p(G)\oplus_p\mathrm{L}^p(G,\ell^p_m) for some 0<θ<π20<\theta<\frac{\pi}{2}. This is presented as a conjecture because the approach developed in the paper is not sufficient to prove it; the claim concerns functional calculus for Hodge–Dirac operators beyond the Hilbert-space case p=2p=2.
