The graduated-order conjecture for the order Hn,λH_{n,\lambda}

Let KK be the local field, RR its valuation ring, and ϖ\varpi a uniformizer. Let VV be the underlying KK-vector space, let Sλ(V)S_\lambda(V) be the representation associated with the partition λ\lambda, and write

N=dimK(Sλ(V)).N=\dim_K(S_\lambda(V)).

Suppose that the residue characteristic parameter satisfies =0\ell=0. For a matrix M=(mij)ZN×NM=(m_{ij})\in\mathbb{Z}^{N\times N}, define

ΛM={XKN×N:XijϖmijR}.\Lambda_M=\{X\in K^{N\times N}:X_{ij}\in\varpi^{m_{ij}}R\}.

Graduated-order conjecture. The order Hn,λH_{n,\lambda}, represented as a matrix order using the standard basis of Sλ(V)S_\lambda(V), is a graduated order: there exists a matrix M=(mij)ZN×NM=(m_{ij})\in\mathbb{Z}^{N\times N} such that

mii=0for 1iN,m_{ii}=0\quad\text{for }1\leq i\leq N,

and

mijmik+mkjfor 1i,j,kN,m_{ij}\leq m_{ik}+m_{kj}\quad\text{for }1\leq i,j,k\leq N,

with

Hn,λ=ΛM.H_{n,\lambda}=\Lambda_M.

This conjecture gives a concrete matrix description of the order Hn,λH_{n,\lambda} in mixed characteristic when =0\ell=0 and concerns the structure of the finite convex fixed-point set associated with the representation. Its resolution would identify these orders with graduated orders in the sense attributed to EHNSS22; the source provides no evidence of a resolution.
