Factorization conjecture for semi-invariants in type C

At least 5 years old · documented by

Let M2\mathbf{M}_2 and rm′r'_m be the sets and integers associated with the standard parabolic contraction in type CC, and let pr⁡(Fj∙)\operatorname{pr}(F_j^\bullet) denote the projected semi-invariants introduced in the paper. For odd m∈M2m\in\mathbf{M}_2, define

f={pr⁡(F2m−2∙)−14pr⁡(Fm−1∙)2,2m−2≤n,pr⁡(Fm−1∙),2m−2>n.f=\begin{cases} \operatorname{pr}(F_{2m-2}^\bullet)-\frac{1}{4}\operatorname{pr}(F_{m-1}^\bullet)^2,&2m-2\leq n,\\ \operatorname{pr}(F_{m-1}^\bullet),&2m-2>n. \end{cases}

Factorization conjecture. There is a decomposition

f=∏k=1rm′+1gkskf=\prod_{k=1}^{r'_m+1}g_k^{s_k}

where sk∈N∗s_k\in\mathbb{N}^* and the gkg_k are pairwise non-associated, nonconstant elements. This conjecture concerns the factorization pattern responsible for possible failures of polynomiality of the semi-invariant algebra. It is motivated by the cases examined in the paper, but no general proof or resolution is supplied.
