Type B product conjecture for middle orders
Type B product conjecture for middle orders
Let be the type finite Coxeter group, with , and let be a maximal parabolic subgroup. A middle order is a distributive lattice that refines the weak order and is coarsened by the Bruhat order. Type B product conjecture. Every middle order on can be obtained as the product of a middle order on and a distributive sorting order on .
This would give a recursive description of all middle orders in type from maximal parabolic data; it is stated conjecturally and remains open.
