The weakest dimension conjecture for free Jordan algebras

About 7 years old · traced to

Let KK be a field of characteristic zero, let J(D)J(D) be the free Jordan algebra on DD generators, and write J(D)=⨁n≥1Jn(D)J(D)=\bigoplus_{n\geq 1}J_n(D). Set an=dim⁡Jn(D)a_n=\dim J_n(D) and let ψ=Dzt−1+(1−Dz)−t\psi=Dzt^{-1}+(1-Dz)-t.

The weakest dimension conjecture. The sequence (an)n≥1(a_n)_{n\geq 1} is the unique solution of

Res⁡t=0 ψ∏n=1∞(1−zn(t+t−1)+z2n)an dt=0.\operatorname{Res}_{t=0}\,\psi\prod_{n=1}^{\infty}\left(1-z^n(t+t^{-1})+z^{2n}\right)^{a_n}\,dt=0.

The equation gives a recurrence determining the predicted dimensions, and computer calculations support it in several cases, including the dimension three space of special identities for D=3D=3 and n=8n=8. A closed formula is not known.
