Kapovich–Millson saturation conjecture for simply laced root systems
Let be a split reductive group over and let be the positive integer from the saturation theorem: for dominant integral weights , , and such that lies in the root lattice, positivity of for some implies positivity of . Kapovich–Millson saturation conjecture. If the root system of is simply laced, then can be chosen to be . This conjecture predicts the sharp saturation factor for tensor product multiplicities of simply laced reductive groups; the paper's theorem proves the relevant Newell–Littlewood saturation result, but the supplied text does not establish whether this general conjecture has been resolved.
