Aubert–Zelevinsky duality conjecture for unipotent representations

From papers

Let k\textmd{k} be a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic 00, let G\textmd{G} be a reductive algebraic group over k\textmd{k}, and let {e,h,f}\{{\it e},{\it h},{\it f}\} be an sl2\mathfrak{sl}_2-triple with htr{\it h}\in\mathfrak{t}^{\vee}_r. Let Sg(2)\mathcal{S}\subset\mathfrak{g}^{\vee}(2) be an orbit and let (SFt,LFt)(\mathcal{S}_{Ft},\mathcal{L}_{Ft}) be the orbit and local system obtained by Fourier transform. Write X(q12h,S,L)X(q^{\frac{1}{2}{\it h}},\mathcal{S},\mathcal{L}) for the corresponding irreducible unipotent representation, and let AZAZ denote Aubert–Zelevinsky duality.

Aubert–Zelevinsky duality conjecture. If X=X(q12h,S,L)X=X(q^{\frac{1}{2}{\it h}},\mathcal{S},\mathcal{L}) is an irreducible unipotent representation in Πq12hLus(G(k))\Pi_{q^{\frac{1}{2}{\it h}}}^{\text{Lus}}(\textmd{G}(\textmd{k})), then

AZ(X)=X(q12h,tSFt,tLFt).AZ(X)=X(q^{\frac{1}{2}{\it h}},{}^t\mathcal{S}_{Ft},{}^t\mathcal{L}_{Ft}).

The conjecture is known for all representations with Iwahori-fixed vectors, but the source gives no general resolution.
