The hypertree generation conjecture for the effective cone of
The hypertree generation conjecture for the effective cone of
Let be the moduli space of stable rational curves with marked points. A boundary divisor is associated to a partition of the markings into and , where both parts have size at least two. Hypertree divisors are divisors on parametrized by hypertrees; an irreducible hypertree is one whose associated hypertree divisor is contractible by a birational map, and pullbacks of such divisors are also considered. Hypertree generation conjecture. The effective cone of is generated by boundary divisors and by divisors parametrized by irreducible hypertrees and their pullbacks. This would give a description of the effective cone in terms of the known extremal boundary and hypertree divisors, but the source only presents the statement as a speculation, with no resolution supplied here.
