The v(2,1)v_{(2,1)}-periodicity conjecture for S/(h,v(1,0)4)S/(h,v^4_{(1,0)})

From papers

Let S/(h,v(1,0)4)S/(h,v^4_{(1,0)}) denote the indicated C2C_2-equivariant complex, let aa be the Euler-class element, and let κˉ~\widetilde{\bar{\kappa}} denote the specified equivariant lift of κˉ\bar{\kappa}. A v(2,1)v_{(2,1)}-self map has the displayed equivariant suspension degree. v(2,1)v_{(2,1)}-periodicity conjecture. The complex S/(h,v(1,0)4)S/(h,v^4_{(1,0)}) has a v(2,1)32v^{32}_{(2,1)}-self map

v(2,1)32:S64+128σ/(h,v(1,0)4)S/(h,v(1,0)4)v^{32}_{(2,1)}: S^{64+128\sigma}/(h,v^4_{(1,0)})\to S/(h,v^4_{(1,0)})

such that

a32v(2,1)32=κˉ~8.a^{32}v_{(2,1)}^{32}=\widetilde{\bar{\kappa}}^{8}.

This is described as an optimistic conjecture motivated by the classical fact that the minimal v2v_2-self map on S/(2,v14)S/(2,v_1^4) is a v232v_2^{32}-self map. Its status is not resolved in the given text.
