The symmetric-power compatibility conjecture for the graded Grothendieck-ring involution
The symmetric-power compatibility conjecture for the graded Grothendieck-ring involution
Let be the graded Grothendieck ring of varieties, equipped with the symmetric-power operations and the involution that interchanges and . Symmetric-power compatibility conjecture. For each , symmetric powers commute with the involution:
The conjecture expresses the expected compatibility between the involution and the symmetric-power operations, motivated by the fact that the involution exchanges the basic degree-one classes and .
