The commutativity conjectures for strong Lie algebras

About 2 years old · traced to

Let nn be a positive integer, let LL be an nn-strong Lie algebra over a field with at least nn elements, and let A(L)A(L) be its universal enveloping algebra. For a monomial p(x1,…,xs)p(x_1,\ldots,x_s), its multiweight records the degree in each variable. Strong-Lie-algebra commutativity conjectures. The following assertions should hold: (I) for all Lie elements a,b∈A(L)a,b\in A(L),

an−1bn−1=(−1)n−1bn−1an−1;a^{n-1}b^{n-1}=(-1)^{n-1}b^{n-1}a^{n-1};

(II) for every monomial p(x,y)p(x,y) of multiweight (n−1,n−1)(n-1,n-1) and all Lie elements a,b∈A(L)a,b\in A(L),

p(a,b)=(−1)n−1p(b,a);p(a,b)=(-1)^{n-1}p(b,a);

(III) for every monomial p(x1,…,xs)p(x_1,\ldots,x_s) of multiweight (n−1,…,n−1)(n-1,\ldots,n-1), every collection of Lie elements ai∈A(L)a_i\in A(L), and every permutation σ\sigma, the elements p(a1,…,as)p(a_1,\ldots,a_s) and p(aσ(1),…,aσ(s))p(a_{\sigma(1)},\ldots,a_{\sigma(s)}) are Fp\mathbb{F}_p-linearly dependent. These conjectures seek a commutativity phenomenon in the enveloping algebras of strong Lie algebras; the source reports verification of the first identity for small values but leaves the general assertions conjectural.
