The arbitrary-level monoidal categorification conjecture

Let g\mathfrak g be a simple Lie algebra, let II be its index set, let \ell be a positive integer, and let C{\cal C}_\ell be the corresponding monoidal subcategory with Grothendieck ring RR_\ell. Let A=A(B~){\cal A}_\ell={\cal A}(\widetilde{B}_\ell) be the cluster algebra with initial variables x(i,k)x_{(i,k)}, and let r(i,k)r(i,k) be the integers defined in the paper. Write Wk,r(i)W^{(i)}_{k,r} for the Kirillov–Reshetikhin module with node ii, level kk, and spectral parameter qrq^r.

Arbitrary-level monoidal categorification conjecture. The assignment

x(i,k)[Wk,r(i,k)(i)]x_{(i,k)}\longmapsto [W^{(i)}_{k,r(i,k)}]

extends to a ring isomorphism ι:AR\iota:{\cal A}_\ell\to R_\ell. Under this identification, C{\cal C}_\ell is a monoidal categorification of A{\cal A}_\ell.

This generalizes the level-one conjecture to arbitrary \ell. The cluster algebra is often of infinite type, and the source presents the assertion as a main conjecture rather than a theorem.
