Bigraded Fröberg conjecture for generic forms on P1×P1\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1

About 9 years old · traced to

Let R=k[x0,x1,y0,y1]R=k[x_0,x_1,y_0,y_1] with deg⁡xi=(1,0)\deg x_i=(1,0) and deg⁡yi=(0,1)\deg y_i=(0,1). Let f1,…,frf_1,\ldots,f_r be generic bigraded forms of bidegrees (di,ei)(d_i,e_i). For a formal power series A(x,y)=∑i,j≥0ai,jxiyjA(x,y)=\sum_{i,j\ge0}a_{i,j}x^iy^j, define A(x,y)+=∑bi,jxiyjA(x,y)_+=\sum b_{i,j}x^iy^j, where bi,j=ai,jb_{i,j}=a_{i,j} if ak,l>0a_{k,l}>0 for all (k,l)≤(i,j)(k,l)\le(i,j), and bi,j=0b_{i,j}=0 otherwise.

Bigraded Fröberg conjecture. The Hilbert series of R/(f1,…,fr)R/(f_1,\ldots,f_r) is

(∏i=1r(1−xdiyei)(1−x)2(1−y)2)+.\left(\frac{\prod_{i=1}^r(1-x^{d_i}y^{e_i})}{(1-x)^2(1-y)^2}\right)_+.

The source says the analogous guess fails in general, with a counterexample on P1×P2\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^2, but conjectures it for P1×P1\mathbb P^1\times\mathbb P^1. Its resolution status is not otherwise specified.
