The maximal-Abelian-subgroup conjecture for SIC Galois groups

Let Π\Pi be a strongly-centred fiducial, let S(Π)S(\Pi) be its symmetry group, and let FS(Π)F\in S(\Pi) be such that the unitary UFU_F is canonical order 33. Let E1/E0\mathbb{E}_1/\mathbb{E}_0 be the field extension associated with the fiducial, and let dd' be the modulus used for the extended Clifford action.

Maximal-Abelian-subgroup conjecture.

Gal(E1/E0)M/S(Π),\operatorname{Gal}(\mathbb{E}_1/\mathbb{E}_0) \cong \mathcal{M}/S(\Pi),

where M\mathcal{M} is a maximal Abelian subgroup of GL(2,Z/dZ)\operatorname{GL}(2,\mathbb{Z}/d'\mathbb{Z}) containing FF.

The conjecture is stated as a generalization of the type-zz relation and is reported to hold for every known exact fiducial, but no general proof is given.
