Modularity conjecture for higher theta series of unitary shtukas

Let mnm\le n be fixed. Let X/XX'/X be the given double cover, let U2m\operatorname{U}_{2m} be the associated quasi-split unitary group, and let BunU2m(k)\operatorname{Bun}_{\operatorname{U}_{2m}}(k) denote its kk-points. The function Z~mr\widetilde{Z}^{r}_{m} is defined on the parabolic moduli and takes values in Chr(nm)(ShtUnr)\operatorname{Ch}_{r(n-m)}(\operatorname{Sht}^{r}_{\operatorname{U}_{n}}). Modularity conjecture. The function Z~mr\widetilde{Z}^{r}_{m} descends to a function

Zmr:BunU2m(k)Chr(nm)(ShtUnr).Z^{r}_{m}:\operatorname{Bun}_{\operatorname{U}_{2m}}(k)\to \operatorname{Ch}_{r(n-m)}(\operatorname{Sht}^{r}_{\operatorname{U}_{n}}).

This asserts that the higher theta series constructed from the special cycles is invariant under the passage from the Siegel parabolic moduli to the moduli of the full unitary group, providing a modularity property for these algebraic cycle-valued generating series.
