Trinh–Xue's conjecture on intersections of Hecke-algebra blocks
Let be a finite reductive group, let be such that and divide the order polynomial of , and let and be, respectively, an -cuspidal and a -cuspidal pair. For a complete HC-parametrisation , the corresponding Harish-Chandra series are the images of the irreducible characters of the associated cyclotomic Hecke algebras under the maps . Let and be primitive th and th roots of unity, respectively, and let blocks mean the block partitions of the specialised Hecke algebras.
Trinh–Xue's conjecture. There exists a choice of complete HC-parametrisation such that, for every such pair and , the intersection
admits a partition such that, for every , is a block of and is a block of . In particular, this defines a bijection between the blocks of the two algebras appearing in this intersection.
The conjecture seeks a common block partition for intersections of Harish-Chandra series associated with different cyclotomic parameters. The source notes that the partitions depend on the choice of complete HC-parametrisation and that no analogous relation is known there in general for .
