Vakil–Wood's homological stability conjecture for symmetric complements

Let XX be an irreducible smooth complex variety. For a partition λ\lambda of kk, let Wλ(X)W_\lambda(X) denote the symmetric complement associated with the stratum indexed by λ\lambda. If 1jλ1^j\lambda is the partition obtained by adjoining jj additional parts equal to 11, then Vakil–Wood's homological stability conjecture.

dimHi(W1jλ(X);Q)=dimHi(W1j+1λ(X);Q)\dim H_i(W_{1^j \lambda}(X);\mathbb{Q})=\dim H_i(W_{1^{j+1} \lambda}(X);\mathbb{Q})

for jij\gg i. This predicts rational homological stability for symmetric complements as the number of particles increases; the conjecture is presented here without evidence of resolution.
