The invariant-ring sum conjecture for infinite-type Cartan matrices

Let AA be an n×nn\times n Cartan matrix of infinite type. Let PP be the ring of invariants associated with the Weyl group of AA, and let PiP_i be the corresponding invariant subrings for the rank-one subsystems indexed by ii. Invariant-ring sum conjecture.

P=P1+P2++Pn.P=P_1+P_2+\cdots+P_n.

This conjecture is motivated by Foley's claim for 3×33\times3 Cartan matrices of infinite type. The general equality is presented as an open conjecture.
