Local constancy of automorphic categories in contractible analytic families

About 6 years old · traced to

Let π:X→S\pi:\mathfrak{X}\to S be a family of curves, let U→SanU\to S^{an} be an analytic étale map from a complex manifold, and let u∈Uu\in U. Let πU:U×SX→U\pi_U:U\times_S\mathfrak{X}\to U be the base-changed family, let Bun⁡G(πU)\operatorname{Bun}_G(\pi_U) be its moduli stack of GG-bundles, and let NπU\mathcal{N}_{\pi_U} be the corresponding universal nilpotent cone. For the inclusion of the fiber iu:Bun⁡G(Xu)↪Bun⁡G(πU)i_u:\operatorname{Bun}_G(\mathfrak{X}_u)\hookrightarrow\operatorname{Bun}_G(\pi_U), restriction gives

iu∗:ShNπU(Bun⁡G(πU))→ShNu(Bun⁡G(Xu)).i_u^*:\mathit{Sh}_{\mathcal{N}_{\pi_U}}(\operatorname{Bun}_G(\pi_U))\to\mathit{Sh}_{\mathcal{N}_u}(\operatorname{Bun}_G(\mathfrak{X}_u)).

Local constancy conjecture. If UU is contractible, then the restriction functor iu∗i_u^* is an equivalence. This is the fiberwise formulation of local constancy for the automorphic category with global nilpotent singular support; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
