Relative Humphreys conjecture on support varieties

Assume p>hp>h. Let X+\mathbb X_+ be the dominant weights, let wλw_\lambda be the unique element of minimal length in the double coset WtλWWt_\lambda W, let N\mathcal N be the nilpotent cone, and let VG1(M)\overline V_{\mathbf G_1}(M) denote the relative support variety. For λX+\lambda\in\mathbb X_+, let CC be the GG-orbit in N\mathcal N corresponding via Lusztig's bijection to the two-sided cell containing wλw_\lambda.

Relative Humphreys conjecture.

VG1(T(wλ0))=C.\overline V_{\mathbf G_1}(\mathsf T(w_\lambda\bullet0))=\overline C.

This is a variant of the traditional Humphreys conjecture for relative support varieties. The supplied text does not state whether it has been resolved.
