The super Artin basis conjecture for complex reflection groups

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let G=G(m,1,n)G=G(m,1,n) act diagonally on the superalgebra C[x,θ1,…,θn]{\mathbb C}[{\bf x},\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_n], where the xix_i commute and the θi\theta_i anticommute. Define the super coinvariant algebra

SRG⁡m,n=C[x,θ1,…,θn]⟨C[x,θ1,…,θn]+G⟩.\operatorname{SRG}_{m,n}=\frac{{\mathbb C}[{\bf x},\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_n]}{\langle {\mathbb C}[{\bf x},\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_n]^G_+\rangle}.

For T⊆[n]T\subseteq[n], let β(T)\beta(T) be the weak composition constructed from the (m,∣[n]∖T∣)(m,|[n]\setminus T|)-staircase as in the source, and define the super Artin set

SAm,n={xαθT∣T⊆[n] and α≤β(T)}.{\mathcal S}{\mathcal A}_{m,n}=\{ {\bf x}^\alpha\theta_T\mid T\subseteq[n]\text{ and }\alpha\leq\beta(T)\}.

Super Artin basis conjecture. The set SAm,n{\mathcal S}{\mathcal A}_{m,n} is a basis for SRG⁡m,n\operatorname{SRG}_{m,n}.

This is a conjectural super analogue of the Artin basis for the ordinary coinvariant algebra. The paper presents Hilbert-series calculations in the extreme theta degrees as evidence, but the asserted basis result remains unproved in the supplied text.
