The Weyl embedding conjecture for polar Grassmannians
The Weyl embedding conjecture for polar Grassmannians
Let be a field, let be the chosen minimal-degree separable quadratic extension in the case , and write
Let be the Weyl embedding of , let be the canonical veronesean embedding of , and let be the Weyl-like embedding of with codomain . Let denote the spin-like embedding of , and let be the canonical veronesean embedding of in .
The Weyl embedding conjecture. The Weyl embedding of induces on its veronesean embedding , the codomain of is the canonical Baer subgeometry of defined over , and induces on . Consequently,
In particular, if , as when , then
The conjecture concerns the compatibility of the Weyl, spin-like, and veronesean embeddings under the inclusions of these polar Grassmannians; the statement is presented as an unproved expectation, and no resolution is supplied in the source.
