The hypertoric intersection-cohomology conjecture for type A

About 5 years old · traced to

Let XnX_n be the complex affine hypertoric variety associated with the root system of sln\mathfrak{sl}_n, equipped with its Sn\mathfrak{S}_n-action, and let Mn:=I ⁣H2∗(Xn;Q)M_n:=I\!H^{2*}(X_n;\mathbb{Q}). Let DnD_n be the graded Sn\mathfrak{S}_n-representation defined earlier in the paper.

The hypertoric intersection-cohomology conjecture. For all nn, there exists an isomorphism of graded Sn\mathfrak{S}_n-representations

Dn≅Mn.D_n\cong M_n.

This conjecture appeared previously in the cited work of Moci, Proudfoot, and Young. The paper proves the isomorphism in degrees at most 77, while the assertion in all degrees remains open.
