Quadratic Gröbner basis conjecture for binomial ideals

Let II be an ideal generated by binomials, and suppose that II has a quadratic Gröbner basis with respect to every monomial order. Say that the generators of II are in pairwise different sets of variables when each generator involves a variable set disjoint from that of every other generator. Let LL be the divisor lattice of 23r2\cdot 3^r, consisting of the positive divisors of 23r2\cdot 3^r ordered by divisibility. Quadratic conjecture. Either the generators of II are binomials in pairwise different sets of variables, or I=ILI=I_L for the divisor lattice of 23r2\cdot 3^r for some r1r\geq 1. The preceding theorem establishes the corresponding classification for finite lattices with no cut edges; this conjectural strengthening concerns arbitrary binomial ideals and is presented without a resolution.
