Okada's conjecture on canonical wavefront sets of unipotent representations

About 2 years old · traced to

Let G=G(F)G=\mathrm G(F), where G\mathrm G is a connected reductive algebraic group defined over FF and inner to a split group. Let KWF(π){}^{K}\mathrm{WF}(\pi) denote the unramified canonical wavefront set of a depth-zero representation, and let dSd_S be Sommer duality on the corresponding orbit-component data. Okada's conjecture. For every unipotent representation π\pi of GG, the set KWF(π){}^{K}\mathrm{WF}(\pi) is a singleton and

dS(KWF(π))=Oϕπ^,d_S({}^{K}\mathrm{WF}(\pi))=\mathcal O_{\phi_{\widehat\pi}},

where ϕπ^\phi_{\widehat\pi} is the parameter of the Aubert–Zelevinsky dual. The conjecture predicts singleton wavefront behavior for unipotent representations with non-real infinitesimal parameter and identifies the singleton through Sommer duality. It is cited in the source as Okada's conjecture and is not resolved in general.
