Reductive projection conjecture for compact Clifford–Klein forms

From papers

Let GG be a connected real linear reductive Lie group, let HH be a reductive subgroup of GG, and let Γ\Gamma be a discrete subgroup of GG. Let the Zariski closure of Γ\Gamma have Levi decomposition LUL\ltimes U, and let πred:LUL\pi_{\operatorname{red}}:L\ltimes U\to L be the projection to the Levi factor. Reductive projection conjecture. If Γ\Gamma acts properly discontinuously and cocompactly on G/HG/H, then the restriction πredΓ\pi_{\operatorname{red}}|_\Gamma is discrete and faithful. This would reduce compact quotient questions to reductive Zariski closures; the paper establishes the consequence under the stated discreteness and faithfulness hypothesis, while the conjecture asserts that this hypothesis is automatic.
