The motivic fundamental lemma

Let K\mathbb{K} be the motivic coefficient ring described in the source, let (g,h)(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h}) be a pair in Definition~, and let rQr\in\mathbb{Q}. For the varieties U(g,h,r)iU(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r)_i, coefficients b(g,h,r)ib(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r)_i, index sets I(g,h,r)I(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r), and polynomials p(g,h,r)p(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r) introduced earlier, the relevant classes lie in K\mathbb{K}.

Motivic fundamental lemma. For every such pair and every rQr\in\mathbb{Q}, one has the identity in K\mathbb{K}

p(h,h,r)(L)iI(g,h,r)b(g,h,r)i[U(g,h,r)i]=p(g,h,r)(L)iI(h,h,r)b(h,h,r)i[U(h,h,r)i].p(\mathfrak{h},\mathfrak{h},r)(\mathbb{L})\sum_{i\in I(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r)} b(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r)_i[U(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r)_i] =p(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{h},r)(\mathbb{L})\sum_{i\in I(\mathfrak{h},\mathfrak{h},r)} b(\mathfrak{h},\mathfrak{h},r)_i[U(\mathfrak{h},\mathfrak{h},r)_i].

This is the geometric or motivic form of the fundamental lemma: after cross-multiplying the denominators from the preceding variety formula, it predicts an identity of motivic classes. The source does not state a resolution status for this conjecture.
