The Read-inspired superalgebra isomorphism for the spin Weyl group of type D

Let nn be even. The Clifford algebra Cln{\mathcal Cl}_n is generated by nn odd generators, and CAn\mathbb C A_n is regarded as an even algebra. The spin group algebra is CDn\mathbb C D_n^-.

Read-inspired isomorphism conjecture. There is a superalgebra isomorphism

ClnCAnCDn.{\mathcal Cl}_n \otimes \mathbb C A_n \cong \mathbb C D_n^-.

This proposed structure result is motivated by Read's work and by the equality between the number of split classes of CDn\mathbb C D_n^- and the number of conjugacy classes of the alternating group AnA_n. The supplied text does not establish the isomorphism, so its resolution remains open.
