Homomorphism-dimension criterion for the minimal-dimension locus

Let QQ be a Dynkin quiver, let PP be projective and II injective, and let MM be a representation of dimension vector d=dim⁡P+dim⁡I{\bf d}=\dim P+\dim I. Assume either (a) QQ is of type AA and neither dim⁡P\dim P nor dim⁡I\dim I has zero components, or (b) QQ is of type DD and P⊕IP\oplus I contains every indecomposable projective and every indecomposable injective representation as a summand. Let Hom⁡Q(−,−)\operatorname{Hom}_Q(-,-) denote the representation homomorphism space.

Homomorphism-dimension conjecture. Under either condition, dim⁡\Grdim⁡P(M)=⟨dim⁡P,dim⁡I⟩\dim\Gr_{\dim P}(M)=\langle\dim P,\dim I\rangle if and only if

dim⁡Hom⁡Q(M,X)≤dim⁡Hom⁡Q(P,X)+1\dim\operatorname{Hom}_Q(M,X)\leq\dim\operatorname{Hom}_Q(P,X)+1

for every non-injective indecomposable representation XX.

This would characterize the minimal-dimension locus by homomorphism dimensions. The source presents it as conjectural, while related special cases and counterexamples outside the stated restrictions are discussed.
