Stable-center single-cycle generation conjecture

Let qq be a prime power, let Φ \Phi be the set of monic irreducible polynomials over Fq \mathbb F_q other than tt, and let G(q) \mathscr{G}(q) be the stable graded algebra with single cycle class sums K(r)fK_{(r)_f} indexed by r1r\geq 1 and fΦf\in\Phi.

Stable-center generation conjecture. The stable center

QZG(q)\mathbb Q\otimes_{\mathbb Z}\mathscr{G}(q)

is the polynomial algebra generated by the single cycle class sums K(r)fK_{(r)_f}, for all r1r\geq 1 and fΦf\in\Phi.

This conjecture gives an explicit polynomial description of the stable center in terms of elementary cycle classes. The source provides no resolution or further evidence sufficient to determine its status.
