Nicklasson's conjecture on powers of generic forms

About 9 years old · traced to

Let SS be a polynomial ring over C\mathbb C, and let g1,…,grg_1,\ldots,g_r be generic forms of degree d>1d>1. Nicklasson's conjecture. The ideal

(g1k,…,grk)(g_1^k,\ldots,g_r^k)

has the same Hilbert series as an ideal generated by rr generic forms of degree dkdk. This compares powers of generic forms with generic forms of the resulting degree; it is known in the binary-form case and remains open in general.
