Unipotent Frobenius divisibility conjecture for spetses

About 1 year old · traced to

Let G=(Wϕ,Λ)\mathbb{G}=(W\phi,\Lambda) be a simply connected Zℓ\mathbb{Z}_\ell-spets and let q∈Zℓ×q\in\mathbb{Z}_\ell^\times. Let SS be the Sylow ℓ\ell-subgroup of (G,q)(\mathbb{G},q), let F\mathcal F be its saturated fusion system, and let χ∈Uch⁡(G)\chi\in\operatorname{Uch}(\mathbb{G}) be a unipotent character. Unipotent Frobenius divisibility conjecture.

(∑t∈S/F∣G:CG(t)∣χ(t))x=q≡0(mod∣S∣).\left(\sum_{t\in S/\mathcal F}|\mathbb{G}:C_{\mathbb{G}}(t)|\chi(t)\right)_{x=q}\equiv0\pmod{|S|}.

This is the unipotent-character analogue of the Frobenius divisibility property and is known when WW is rational; it remains open in general.
