Convexity conjecture for strongly Ricci-negative derivations

About 7 years old · traced to

Let n\mathfrak{n} be a nilpotent Lie algebra, let t(n)\mathfrak{t}(\mathfrak{n}) be a maximal torus of diagonalizable derivations, and let t(n)srn\mathfrak{t}(\mathfrak{n})_{\mathrm{srn}} denote the corresponding strongly Ricci-negative cone. Strong Ricci-negativity cone conjecture. The cone t(n)srn\mathfrak{t}(\mathfrak{n})_{\mathrm{srn}} is open in t(n)\mathfrak{t}(\mathfrak{n}) and convex. This is known for Heisenberg and filiform Lie algebras and for every nilpotent Lie algebra of dimension at most five, but remains open in general.
