The Harder–Borel quasi-isomorphism conjecture for generalized automorphic complexes

About 24 years old · traced to

Let YY be the locally symmetric space and E(π⊗φ)E(\pi\otimes\varphi) the coefficient bundle in the supplied setting. Write Ω∗(Y,E(π⊗φ))\Omega^*(Y,E(\pi\otimes\varphi)) for its de Rham complex, let AF∗(Y,E(π⊗φ)){\cal A}_F^*(Y,E(\pi\otimes\varphi)) be the automorphic-form subcomplex with generalized infinitesimal character χF\chi_F, and let AF,ch∗(Y,E(π⊗φ)){\cal A}_{F,ch}^*(Y,E(\pi\otimes\varphi)) be the coclosed harmonic automorphic subcomplex.

Harder–Borel conjecture. The inclusions

AF,ch∗(Y,E(π⊗φ))⊂AF∗(Y,E(π⊗φ))⊂Ω∗(Y,E(π⊗φ)){\cal A}_{F,ch}^*(Y,E(\pi\otimes\varphi))\subset {\cal A}_F^*(Y,E(\pi\otimes\varphi))\subset \Omega^*(Y,E(\pi\otimes\varphi))

are quasi-isomorphisms.

This is the precise complex-level formulation of the Harder–Borel assertion: the automorphic and coclosed harmonic subcomplexes should compute the same cohomology as the full de Rham complex. The supplied text does not state whether it has been resolved.
