Distinct-eigenvalue conjecture for subcritical covariance matrices
Let be the covariance matrix of the length power functionals in the subcritical regime, for , with eigenvalues . Distinct-eigenvalue conjecture. The eigenvalues are pairwise distinct:
The conjecture is motivated by the question of whether the previously obtained lower and upper eigenvalue bounds are sharp for ; the supplied text gives no resolution of the distinctness claim.
