Symmetry conjecture for projective-injective modules of parabolic category O

From papers

Let g\mathfrak{g} be an arbitrary quasi-reductive Lie superalgebra and let p\mathfrak p be a parabolic subalgebra of g\mathfrak{g}. Write PIp\mathcal{PI}^{\mathfrak p} for the full subcategory of the parabolic category Op\mathcal O^{\mathfrak p} consisting of projective-injective objects, and let Stop(g1ˉ)S^{\rm top}(\mathfrak{g}_{\bar 1}) denote the top symmetric power of the odd part, regarded as a g\mathfrak{g}-module. Symmetry conjecture for projective-injective modules. The category PIp\mathcal{PI}^{\mathfrak p} is symmetric if and only if Stop(g1ˉ)S^{\rm top}(\mathfrak{g}_{\bar 1}) is isomorphic to the trivial g\mathfrak{g}-module.

The conjecture extends results known for basic classical and Q-type Lie superalgebras under additional assumptions, and for general linear Lie superalgebras. It predicts that symmetry is characterized precisely by triviality of the top symmetric power of the odd part.
