Generic Newton slope conjecture for dominant affine Weyl elements

About 19 years old · traced to

Let G=SLn(F)G=SL_n(F), let x=πμw∈W~x=\pi^{\mu}w\in\widetilde{W}, and suppose that μ\mu is dominant, meaning

⟨αi,μ⟩≥0\langle\alpha_i,\mu\rangle\geq 0

for every simple root αi\alpha_i in Lie⁡(G)\operatorname{Lie}(G), equivalently μ1≥⋯≥μn\mu_1\geq\cdots\geq\mu_n. Let νx\nu_x denote the generic Newton slope sequence associated to xx, and let μdom⁡\mu_{\operatorname{dom}} denote the dominant representative of μ\mu. Generic Newton slope conjecture. Then

νx=−μdom⁡.\nu_x=-\mu_{\operatorname{dom}}.

The conjecture seeks a root-theoretic formula for the generic Newton slope in the Iwahori case, analogous to Mazur's inequality; the source gives no resolution status.
