Brough–Eick conjecture on contact and Hamiltonian algebra quotients
Brough–Eick conjecture on contact and Hamiltonian algebra quotients
Let be a field of characteristic . Let be odd, , and set . Write for the derived algebra and for its relevant maximal nilpotent ideal; likewise write for the corresponding ideal of . Brough–Eick's quotient-isomorphism conjecture. The quotient is simple and isomorphic to :
The conjecture is based on computational evidence and concerns the expected simple Hamiltonian quotient associated with each odd-dimensional contact algebra.
