Primality conjecture for symmetric matrix Schubert ideals
Primality conjecture for symmetric matrix Schubert ideals
Let be a positive integer, let be the space of symmetric matrices, and for each symmetric matrix let be the ideal generated by the specified minors in the coordinate ring . Primality conjecture. For every symmetric matrix , is a prime ideal of . Since the corresponding symmetric matrix Schubert varieties are irreducible, this would follow from the ideal-equality conjecture. It is computationally verified for over , , and , but remains open in general.
