The involutive antiautomorphism conjecture for tridiagonal pairs

About 19 years old · traced to

Assume F\mathbb F is algebraically closed. Let VV be a vector space over F\mathbb F with finite positive dimension, and let A,A∗A,A^* be a tridiagonal pair on VV. The involutive antiautomorphism conjecture. There exists a unique antiautomorphism †\dagger of End⁡(V)\operatorname{End}(V) that fixes both AA and A∗A^*, and

X††=XX^{\dagger\dagger}=X

for every X∈End⁡(V)X\in\operatorname{End}(V).

Such an antiautomorphism would provide a canonical involutive symmetry of the endomorphism algebra associated with the pair. The claim is listed among the paper's directions for extending structural results beyond Krawtchouk type.
