Conjecture on the non-monomial associated prime of In(B)I_n(B)

Let In(B)I_n(B) be the ideal associated with the matrix BB in the construction of the Rees algebra, and let P\mathcal{P} denote the non-linear part of the defining ideal of that Rees algebra. When the GnG_n condition is not satisfied, In(B)I_n(B) is not prime. Non-monomial associated-prime conjecture. The ideal P\mathcal{P} is the only associated prime of In(B)I_n(B) that is not generated by monomials. The preceding discussion indicates that P\mathcal{P} is expected to be a minimal prime of In(B)I_n(B); the claim concerns the uniqueness of the associated prime with this non-monomial property.
