F-regularity conjecture for partial commutator ideals

About 9 years old · traced to

Let XX and YY be n×nn\times n matrices of indeterminates over a field KK, let R=K[X,Y]R=K[X,Y], and let uiju_{ij} be the off-diagonal entries of XY−YXXY-YX. For a subset

Z⊆{uij∣1≤i≠j≤n}Z\subseteq\{u_{ij}\mid 1\leq i\neq j\leq n\}

of cardinality at most n2−n−1n^2-n-1, let IZ\mathcal{I}_Z be the ideal of RR generated by the elements of ZZ.

F-regularity conjecture for partial commutator ideals. The quotient R/IZR/\mathcal{I}_Z is FF-regular. In particular, IZ\mathcal{I}_Z is a prime ideal.

This predicts strong singularity properties for every proper partial collection of the off-diagonal commutator equations. The source gives no verification or resolution for the general values of nn and ZZ.
