Bounded-support conjecture for the restricted Weyl group action
Bounded-support conjecture for the restricted Weyl group action
Let be any simple real Lie algebra of rank , and let be a dominant weight, written in the basis of fundamental weights as
Suppose that the space of -invariant vectors is nonzero. Bounded-support conjecture. The restriction of the longest Weyl group element satisfies
only when at most of the coordinates are nonzero. This conjecture generalizes the corresponding statement in the split case, where the bound is . The evidence described in the source is experimental, based on computations for sufficiently low-dimensional representations and sufficiently low-rank simple Lie algebras; the general assertion remains open.
