The ungraded Orlik–Terao representation conjecture

Let MnM_n and DnD_n be the graded SnS_n-representations in the main conjecture, and let Mn\overline{M}_n and Dn\overline{D}_n denote the corresponding ungraded representations. Let ZnZ_n be the cyclic subgroup of SnS_n acting on SnS_n by right multiplication.

Ungraded Orlik–Terao representation conjecture. There exists an isomorphism of SnS_n-representations

MnDnIndZnSn(triv)C[Sn/Zn],\overline{M}_n\cong\overline{D}_n\cong\operatorname{Ind}_{Z_n}^{S_n}(\operatorname{triv})\cong\mathbb{C}[S_n/Z_n],

where ZnZ_n acts on SnS_n via right multiplication.

This conjecture gives an explicit description of the common ungraded representation and was verified computationally through n=10n=10 in the source. No general proof or disproof is stated.
