The Chevalley basis Khovanskii basis conjecture
Let be a homogeneous space with a dominant weight yielding a projective embedding , and let be a reduced expression for . A Chevalley basis for is the weight basis obtained from actions of monomials in Chevalley generators. The Chevalley basis Khovanskii basis conjecture. There exists a reduced expression such that the coordinates corresponding to any Chevalley basis for form a Khovanskii basis for , and admits a toric degeneration whose normalization is the toric variety associated to . The conjecture extends the minuscule construction to arbitrary homogeneous spaces and embeddings; the authors note that the suitable choice of reduced expression and weight basis can affect whether the coordinate valuations generate the valuation semigroup.
