Vanishing of the diagonal cycle for equal self-dual representations

Let π\pi be a self-dual automorphic representation, let π1=π2=π3=π\pi_1=\pi_2=\pi_3=\pi, and let ff range over i=13πiU\boxtimes_{i=1}^3\pi_i^U. Vanishing conjecture for equal self-dual representations. If

ϵ(1/2,π)=1,\epsilon(1/2,\pi)=-1,

then

[Δ3]f=0[\Delta_3]_f=0

for every fi=13πiUf\in\boxtimes_{i=1}^3\pi_i^U. Motivated by the generalized Gross–Kudla conjecture, this predicts vanishing of the modified diagonal cycle in the equal-representation case; the source presents it as an open conjecture.
