Euler-operator injection conjecture for lower central series quotients

About 16 years old · traced to

Let BkB_k be multigraded, and write Bk[d1,…,dn,0,0]B_k[d_1,\ldots,d_n,0,0] for its multidegree component. Let E:=∑xi∂iE:=\sum x_i\partial_i be the Euler operator, and set

D:=[xn+1,xn+2]E∈Wn+2~.D:=[x_{n+1},x_{n+2}]E\in\widetilde{W_{n+2}}.

Euler-operator injection conjecture. The operator DD is an injection

D:Bk[d1,…,dn,0,0]↪Bk[d1,…,dn,1,1].D:B_k[d_1,\ldots,d_n,0,0]\hookrightarrow B_k[d_1,\ldots,d_n,1,1].

The conjecture is stated as verifiable for Bˉ1\bar{B}_1, B2B_2, and B3B_3 from their explicit descriptions, but remains open in general.
