Bijection conjecture for pseudo-involutions fixing stable root spaces

Let AA be the generalized Cartan matrix with Kac–Moody algebra g\mathfrak{g}, and let (X,τ,χ)(X,\tau,\chi) be an enriched compatible decoration, where QXQ_X is the root lattice associated with XX. Consider the assignment (X,τ,χ)θ(X,τ,χ)(X,\tau,\chi) \mapsto \theta(X,\tau,\chi) and the actions of Aut(A)\operatorname{Aut}(A) on decorations and Aut(g)\operatorname{Aut}(\mathfrak{g}) on pseudo-involutions.

Bijection conjecture. The assignment (X,τ,χ)θ(X,τ,χ)(X,\tau,\chi) \mapsto \theta(X,\tau,\chi) induces a bijection

θfix:{enriched compatible decorations (X,τ,χ) such that χQX=1}/Aut(A){pseudo-involutions of the second kind fixing pointwise all stable root spaces}/Aut(g).\overline{\theta}_{\mathsf{fix}}:\left\{\text{enriched compatible decorations }(X,\tau,\chi)\text{ such that }\chi|_{Q_X}=1\right\}/\operatorname{Aut}(A)\longrightarrow\left\{\text{pseudo-involutions of the second kind fixing pointwise all stable root spaces}\right\}/\operatorname{Aut}(\mathfrak{g}).

This conjecture proposes that restricting to pseudo-involutions fixing pointwise all stable root spaces removes the failure of the corresponding unrestricted assignment to be injective, while the preceding corollary establishes the relevant conjugacy classification. It remains open in the source.
