Internal parametrization conjecture for L-packets over local fields of arbitrary characteristic

Let GG be a connected reductive group over a non-archimedean local field FF of arbitrary characteristic, and fix a Whittaker datum for its quasi-split inner form GG^{\ast}. Let Sφ+S_\varphi^{+} and IrrζG(Sφ+)\operatorname{Irr}_{\zeta_G}(S_\varphi^{+}) have the meanings specified in the source, and let QQ be the quotient defined there, with Q^=Hom(Q,C×)\widehat Q=\operatorname{Hom}(Q,\mathbb C^{\times}).

Internal parametrization conjecture. There exists a canonical surjection

pr:IrrζG ⁣(Sφ+)  Πφ(G),\operatorname{pr}:\operatorname{Irr}_{\zeta_G}\!\bigl(S_\varphi^{+}\bigr)\ \twoheadrightarrow\ \Pi_{\varphi}(G),

whose fibers form a torsor under Q^\widehat Q.

This conjecture proposes an internal parametrization of an LL-packet in arbitrary characteristic, including positive characteristic where the source notes that a theory of rigid inner forms is absent. Its resolution is not specified in the supplied text.
