Vanishing conjecture for local shtuka cohomology

About 2 years old · traced to

Let b∈B(G)b\in B(G) be basic, let μ∙\mu_\bullet be a finite collection of cocharacters, and let ρ\rho be an irreducible admissible representation of Gb(\bbQp)G_b(\bbQ_p) whose parameter ϕ=ϕρ\phi=\phi_\rho is elliptic. Let RΓ(G,b,μ∙)[ρ]R\Gamma(G,b,\mu_\bullet)[\rho] denote the shifted intersection cohomology complex of the local shtuka space in the ρ\rho-isotypic part. Vanishing conjecture. The cohomology is concentrated in the middle degree:

Hn(RΓ(G,b,μ∙)[ρ])=0for n≠0.H^n(R\Gamma(G,b,\mu_\bullet)[\rho])=0\qquad\text{for }n\ne0.

This predicts that the local shtuka cohomology has no contribution outside the normalized middle degree; the source states the prediction but supplies no resolution.
