Saturated Newton polytope conjecture for Kronecker products of Schur functions
For a symmetric function , let denote its specialization obtained by setting for all . A polynomial has a saturated Newton polytope (SNP) when the points with positive coefficients coincide with the lattice points in their convex hull. For partitions and , write
where are the Kronecker coefficients. Kronecker SNP conjecture. The Kronecker product has a saturated Newton polytope. This conjecture asks for a saturated Newton polytope property for one of the central products in algebraic combinatorics and representation theory. The supplied text gives no resolution evidence for this claim.
