The tensor-product embedding conjecture for the dominance order on pairs

Let P+P^+ be the set of dominant integral weights, and let V(γ)V(\gamma) denote the irreducible highest weight representation of highest weight γ\gamma. For pairs of dominant weights with λ+μ=λ′+μ′\lambda+\mu=\lambda'+\mu', define (λ,μ)⪯(λ′,μ′)(\lambda,\mu)\preceq(\lambda',\mu') when

min⁡{λ(β∨),μ(β∨)}≤min⁡{λ′(β∨),μ′(β∨)}\min\{\lambda(\beta^\vee),\mu(\beta^\vee)\}\leq\min\{\lambda'(\beta^\vee),\mu'(\beta^\vee)\}

for every positive coroot β∨\beta^\vee. The tensor-product embedding conjecture. If (λ,μ)⪯(λ′,μ′)(\lambda,\mu)\preceq(\lambda',\mu'), then

V(λ)⊗V(μ)⊆V(λ′)⊗V(μ′).V(\lambda)\otimes V(\mu)\subseteq V(\lambda')\otimes V(\mu').

The conjecture connects the order on pairs of dominant weights with embeddings of tensor products and is motivated by fusion products of cyclic current-algebra modules. Its resolution is not supplied in the source.
