The characteristic bound conjecture for type-two monomial algebras

About 13 years old · traced to

Let R=K[x,y,z]R=K[x,y,z], and let II be an Artinian monomial ideal such that R/IR/I is of type two. The weak Lefschetz property means that multiplication by a general linear form has maximal rank in every degree. Assume that R/IR/I has the weak Lefschetz property in characteristic zero.

Characteristic bound conjecture. Then R/IR/I has the weak Lefschetz property in every characteristic p>12(a+b+c)p>\frac{1}{2}(a+b+c).

The conjecture is motivated by computer experimentation and is presented as an improvement over the much larger effective bound established earlier in the paper. The parameters a,b,ca,b,c occur in the asserted bound, but the supplied context does not define them explicitly for this candidate.
