Thomsen's comparison conjecture for the MVdK and KLT splittings

About 2 years old · traced to

Let G=GL⁡nG=\operatorname{GL}_n, let PP be a parabolic subgroup containing the Borel subgroup BB, and let uP\mathfrak{u}_P be the nilpotent radical of the Lie algebra of PP. Consider the cotangent bundles G×BuPG\times^B\mathfrak{u}_P and G×PuPG\times^P\mathfrak{u}_P, together with the MVdK splitting and the KLT splitting. Thomsen's conjecture. The pushforward to G×PuPG\times^P\mathfrak{u}_P of the splitting of G×BuPG\times^B\mathfrak{u}_P induced by the MVdK splitting is the top-degree component of the KLT splitting. This compares two Frobenius splittings arising in the study of cotangent bundles of flag varieties; the supplied text does not indicate whether the assertion has been proved or remains open.
