Ennola duality conjecture for Deligne–Lusztig cohomology

About 22 years old · traced to

Let N=l(w0)N=l(w_0), let ρ∈E(GF,1)\rho\in{\mathcal E}({\bf G}^F,1), and let AρA_\rho and aρa_\rho be respectively the degree and valuation of the polynomial in qq giving ρ(1)\rho(1). Let EE be the Ennola involution of E(GF,1){\mathcal E}({\bf G}^F,1). Ennola duality conjecture. Assume that w0w_0 is central in WW. For every w∈B+{\bf w}\in B^+, one has

⟨Hc∗(X(w0w)),ρ⟩=h2N−AρtN−(aρ+Aρ)/2⟨Hc∗(X(w)),E(ρ)⟩.\langle H_c^*({\bf X}({\bf w}_0{\bf w})),\rho\rangle=h^{2N-A_\rho}t^{N-(a_\rho+A_\rho)/2}\langle H_c^*({\bf X}({\bf w})),E(\rho)\rangle.

The conjecture relates cohomology after multiplication by the longest Weyl-group element to the Ennola involution; the surrounding periodicity claims are verified in rank 22 and in the cases computed in the paper.
