Humphreys' conjecture on blocks for reduced enveloping algebras
Humphreys' conjecture on blocks for reduced enveloping algebras
Let be a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic , let be its Lie algebra, and let be nilpotent. Let be the relevant set of weights and let denote the corresponding dot-action of the Weyl group. The map associates to each block of an element of . Humphreys' conjecture on blocks. The map is a bijection; equivalently, there is a natural bijection between the blocks of and , so that
This conjecture parametrises the blocks of reduced enveloping algebras. The paper states that it is known under Jantzen's standard assumptions and establishes it under slightly weaker assumptions, including a new proof for type in characteristic ; the general claim is therefore not presented as resolved in the supplied text.
