The fixed-point conjecture for Coulomb branches

Let M(λ,μ)\mathcal M(\lambda,\mu) be the Coulomb branch associated with a quiver gauge theory, let χ ⁣:C×π1(G)\chi\colon\mathbb C^\times\to\pi_1(\mathbf G)^\wedge be the one-parameter subgroup induced by a character of G\mathbf G, and let M(λ,μ)χ\mathcal M(\lambda,\mu)^\chi denote its fixed-point set. The fixed-point conjecture. The fixed-point set M(λ,μ)χ\mathcal M(\lambda,\mu)^\chi is either empty or consists of a single point. This is proved for finite-type quivers and affine quivers of type AA, while the general Kac–Moody case remains conjectural.
