The symmetric-product semi-orthogonal decomposition conjecture
Let be a projective smooth curve of genus , and let denote its -th symmetric product. Let be its derived category, and call a semi-orthogonal decomposition non-trivial if it is not the trivial one. Symmetric-product conjecture. There is no non-trivial semi-orthogonal decomposition on for
The source proves this in several ranges, including and for curves of genus at least , while the full range remains open in the supplied source. The statement was independently stated by Belmans, Galkin and Mukhopadhyay.
