Thick tensor-ideal exhaustion conjecture for dualizable spectra in the \Sp_{k,n}-local category

About 5 years old · traced to

Let 0≤i≤n+10 \le i \le n+1. For i≤ni \le n, let Di\mathcal D_i be the full subcategory of dualizable objects XX in \Spk,n\dual\Sp_{k,n}^{\dual} that are retracts of Y∧ZY \wedge Z for some dualizable YY and some finite spectrum ZZ of type at least ii, and set Dn+1=(0)\mathcal D_{n+1}=(0). A thick tensor-ideal exhaustion conjecture asserts that every thick tensor-ideal C\mathcal C of \Spk,n\dual\Sp_{k,n}^{\dual} is one of these subcategories:

C=Di\mathcal C=\mathcal D_i

Equivalently, the Balmer spectrum is

\Spc(\Spk,n\dual)={D1,…,Dn+1},\Spc(\Sp_{k,n}^{\dual})=\{\mathcal D_1,\ldots,\mathcal D_{n+1}\},

with closure operator

{Di}‾={Dj∣j≥i}.\overline{\{\mathcal D_i\}}=\{\mathcal D_j\mid j\ge i\}.

This generalizes the Hovey--Strickland conjecture from the K(n)K(n)-local case k=nk=n; the paper notes that the case k=nk=n has been investigated in detail, while the general case remains conjectural.
