Kac's constant-term conjecture for loopless quivers

At least 24 years old · documented by

Let Γ=(Γ0,Γ1)\Gamma=(\Gamma_0,\Gamma_1) be a finite quiver with no loops, let α∈Nn\alpha\in\mathbb{N}^n be a dimension vector, and let AΓ(α,q)A_\Gamma(\alpha,q) be its Kac polynomial. Let the Kac-Moody algebra associated to Γ\Gamma have root vector α\alpha with a specified multiplicity. Kac's conjecture. The constant term of AΓ(α,q)A_\Gamma(\alpha,q) is equal to the multiplicity of the root vector α\alpha in the associated Kac-Moody algebra. This conjecture was proved by Crawley-Boevey and Van den Bergh for indivisible dimension vectors and by Hausel for arbitrary dimension vectors.
