Strong Fröberg–Iarrobino conjecture for homogeneous linear systems

About 11 years old · traced to

Let L=Ln,d(ms){\mathcal L}={\mathcal L}_{n,d}(m^s) be a homogeneous linear system of degree-dd hypersurfaces in Pn{\mathbb P}^n through ss general points, each with multiplicity mm, and let ldim⁡(L)\operatorname{ldim}({\mathcal L}) denote its linear expected dimension. Strong Fröberg–Iarrobino conjecture. The system satisfies

dim⁡(L)=ldim⁡(L)\dim({\mathcal L})=\operatorname{ldim}({\mathcal L})

except perhaps when one of the following conditions holds: s=n+3s=n+3; s=n+4s=n+4; n=2n=2 and s=7s=7 or s=8s=8; n=3n=3, s=9s=9 and d≥2md\geq 2m; or n=4n=4, s=14s=14 and d=2md=2m with m=2m=2 or 33. The conjecture refines the weak lower-bound statement by listing possible exceptional families; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
