Factorization conjecture for derivative embeddings

Let πIrrρ\pi\in\mathrm{Irr}_{\rho}, let nMultρ\mathfrak n\in\mathrm{Mult}_{\rho} be minimal to π\pi, and let h=hd(π)\mathfrak h=\mathfrak{hd}(\pi). Set l1=labs(n)l_1=l_{\mathrm{abs}}(\mathfrak n) and l2=labs(hd(π))labs(n)l_2=l_{\mathrm{abs}}(\mathfrak{hd}(\pi))-l_{\mathrm{abs}}(\mathfrak n). Let DhD_{\mathfrak h} and DnD_{\mathfrak n} denote the corresponding derivatives, let λ~\widetilde{\lambda} denote co-standard representations, let r(n,π)\mathfrak r(\mathfrak n,\pi) be the removal multisegment, and let Na,bN_{a,b} and Na,b,cN_{a,b,c} denote the unipotent radicals of the indicated parabolics. Assume the minimal-model conjecture and the multisegment embedding conjecture hold, so that the maps ι1\iota_1, ι2\iota_2, and ι3\iota_3 in the displayed diagram are defined by the stated embeddings.

Factorization conjecture. The composite ι2ι1\iota_2\circ\iota_1 factors through ι3\iota_3.

This conjecture predicts compatibility between the minimal-model and multisegment embedding constructions. It is conditional on the two conjectures named in the source, whose status is not resolved in the supplied text.
