The eigenvalue and diagonalisation conjecture for Lannes' T-functor

About 12 years old · traced to

Let Kred(U)K^{red}(\mathcal U) be the Grothendieck ring of finite direct sums of indecomposable reduced injective unstable modules, and let Knred(U)K^{red}_n(\mathcal U) be the subgroup generated by the classes of the LλL_\lambda with λ1≤n\lambda_1\leq n. Lannes' TT-functor acts on Knred(U)K^{red}_n(\mathcal U). Eigenvalue and diagonalisation conjecture. The eigenvalues of TT on KnredK^{red}_n are all powers of 22, more precisely they are (1)2n−1,(2)2n−2,…,(2n−1)1,(2n)1(1)^{2^{n-1}},(2)^{2^{n-2}},\ldots,(2^{n-1})^1,(2^n)^1, where the exponent indicates multiplicity, and TT is diagonalisable on KnredK^{red}_n. The conjecture was checked through n=9n=9 for p=2p=2 and was subsequently proved using the Segal conjecture.
