Bergeron's combinatorial supersymmetry conjecture

About 4 years old · traced to

Let R(n;r,ℓ)\mathcal{R}(n;r,\ell) be the multigraded SnS_n-module with commuting and anticommuting variable sets, let ch⁡R(n;r,ℓ)\operatorname{ch}\mathcal{R}(n;r,\ell) be its Sn×GLr(C)×GLℓ(C)S_n\times GL_r(\mathbb{C})\times GL_\ell(\mathbb{C}) character, and let

En(x,q)=∑λ,μbλ,μsλ(x)sμ(q)\mathcal{E}_n(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{q})=\sum_{\lambda,\mu}b_{\lambda,\mu}s_\lambda(\mathbf{x})s_\mu(\mathbf{q})

be the stable character for commuting variables. Let z\mathbf{z} be an infinite alphabet of anticommuting tracking variables and cν,ρμc_{\nu,\rho}^{\mu} a Littlewood–Richardson coefficient. Bergeron's combinatorial supersymmetry conjecture. For any r,ℓ≥0r,\ell\geq0, ch⁡R(n;r,ℓ)\operatorname{ch}\mathcal{R}(n;r,\ell) is obtained from

∑λ,μ,ν,ρbλ,μcν,ρμsλ(x)sν(q)sρ′(z)\sum_{\lambda,\mu,\nu,\rho}b_{\lambda,\mu}c_{\nu,\rho}^{\mu}s_\lambda(\mathbf{x})s_\nu(\mathbf{q})s_{\rho'}(\mathbf{z})

by setting qi=0q_i=0 for i>ri>r and zj=0z_j=0 for j>ℓj>\ell. The conjecture predicts that all mixed commuting–anticommuting characters are determined by the stable commuting character. The source gives no resolution status.
