Charged-multiplet formula for elliptic Calabi–Yau threefolds

Let XBX \to B be an equidimensional elliptic Calabi-Yau threefold with Q\mathbb{Q}-factorial terminal singularities and reduced discriminant Σ\Sigma, whose divisorial components are Σj\Sigma_j. Assume that Σm⊄Σj\Sigma_m \not\subset \Sigma_j for every jj. For a representation ρ\rho of a Lie algebra with Cartan subalgebra, let (dimρ)ch(\dim \rho)_{ch} denote its charged dimension, and let g(Σj)g(\Sigma_j), gjg_j', gjg_j, ρ0,j\rho_{0,j}, ρQ\rho_Q, and cQc_Q be the quantities defined in the source.

Charged-multiplet conjecture. The charged multiplets HchH_{ch} in the massless spectrum satisfy

Hch=jg(Σj)(dimadjj)ch+j(gjgj)(dimρ0,j)ch+Q(dimρQ)ch+QcQ.H_{ch}=\sum_j g(\Sigma_j)(\dim \operatorname{adj}_j)_{ch}+\sum_j(g_j'-g_j)(\dim \rho_{0,j})_{ch}+\sum_Q(\dim \rho_Q)_{ch}+\sum_Q c_Q.

This formula is intended to describe the charged part of the massless spectrum of elliptically fibered Calabi–Yau threefolds in terms of geometric and representation-theoretic data. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been proved or disproved.
