Looijenga–Saper–Stern conjecture for modularity in L2-cohomology

Let XX be a Shimura variety with special cycles Z(m)\mathcal Z(m) whose generating series is modular in cohomology, and let XX^* be its Satake–Baily–Borel compactification. Looijenga–Saper–Stern conjecture. The classes [Z(m)][\mathcal Z(m)] are defined in the L2L^2-cohomology of XX, and their generating series is a modular form. The conjecture seeks an L2L^2-cohomological realization of the special-cycle classes compatible with modularity; the source presents it as a natural conjectural extension of known cohomological modularity results.
