Belavin–Drinfeld cohomology conjecture for the Drinfeld–Jimbo r-matrix

About 13 years old · traced to

Let g\mathfrak{g} be a simple Lie algebra, let G=Ad⁡(g)G=\operatorname{Ad}(\mathfrak{g}) be its adjoint group, and let rDJr_{DJ} be the Drinfeld–Jimbo rr-matrix. For a Belavin–Drinfeld rr-matrix rBDr_{BD}, define HBD1(G,rBD)H^{1}_{BD}(G,r_{BD}) as the set of equivalence classes of Belavin–Drinfeld cocycles, where a cocycle is an element X∈G(K‾)X\in G(\overline{\mathbb{K}}) satisfying X−1σ(X)∈C(K‾,rBD)X^{-1}\sigma(X)\in C(\overline{\mathbb{K}},r_{BD}) for every σ∈Gal⁡(K‾/K)\sigma\in\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{K}}/\mathbb{K}), and C(K‾,rBD)C(\overline{\mathbb{K}},r_{BD}) is the subgroup acting trivially on rBDr_{BD}. Belavin–Drinfeld cohomology conjecture. The cohomology HBD1(G,rDJ)H^{1}_{BD}(G,r_{DJ}) is trivial if and only if g\mathfrak{g} is simply laced, namely of type A, D, or E. This conjectures a precise distinction between the Drinfeld–Jimbo cohomologies of simply laced and non-simply-laced simple Lie algebras; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
