Conjecture that the principal arithmetic subgroup has no non-trivial symmetries

From papers

Let N(r)N(r) denote the order of the outer automorphism group of the principal arithmetic subgroup Λ0n\Lambda_0^n, in the setting of the arithmetic quotients considered in the paper. Symmetry conjecture. For all r2r\geq 2, N(r)=1N(r)=1, and therefore

χ(Ominn)=λ(r)4r1i=1rζQ[5](12i).|\chi(O_{\min}^n)|=\frac{\lambda(r)}{4^{r-1}}\prod_{i=1}^{r}|\zeta_{{\mathbb Q}[\sqrt5]}(1-2i)|.

The conjecture asserts that the principal arithmetic subgroup has no non-trivial outer symmetries; the source notes that this can be checked in small dimensions where the group is reflective, but does not provide a proof in higher dimensions. The displayed formula gives the resulting expression for the Euler characteristic of the minimal orbifold.
