The algebraic generation conjecture for the homology of dNd_N

About 1 year old · traced to

Let uiu_i and ξj\xi_j be the generators in the polynomial algebra underlying the differential dNd_N, and for k=1,…,n−1k=1,\ldots,n-1 define

μk=∑i+j=k(Ni−j)uiξj.\mu_k=\sum_{i+j=k}(Ni-j)u_i\xi_j.

The differential satisfies dN(ξ(z))=u(z)Nmod  znd_N(\xi(z))=u(z)^N\mod z^n, where u(z)=∑i=0n−1uiziu(z)=\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}u_i z^i and ξ(z)=∑i=0n−1ξizi\xi(z)=\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}\xi_i z^i. Algebraic generation conjecture. The homology of dNd_N is generated by uiu_i and μk\mu_k as an algebra. For N=2N=2 and n≤8n\leq 8 this conjecture has been extensively verified, but it remains open in general.
