The asymptotic unimodality conjecture for Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials
For each , let be the proportion of distinct first-row Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials for that are unimodal, and let be the corresponding proportion in the multiset of polynomials indexed by . Asymptotic unimodality conjecture. Almost all Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials are unimodal:
The conjecture is motivated by computations and contrasts with the rapidly vanishing proportions of bimodal and trimodal examples observed in the data.
