The odd-degree annihilator correction conjecture

Let VnV_n be an nn-dimensional vector space, let ff be a generic form of odd degree d>3d>3 in the exterior algebra, and let an,d(t)a_{n,d}(t), pn,d(t)p_{n,d}(t), and Δn,d(t)\Delta_{n,d}(t) be the Hilbert-series quantities defined in the paper. Put

τn,d(t)=an,d(t)max(pn,d(t),Δn,d(t)).\tau_{n,d}(t)=a_{n,d}(t)-\max\left(p_{n,d}(t),\Delta_{n,d}(t)\right).

Odd-degree annihilator correction conjecture. For odd d>3d>3,

τn,d(t)={tv(v1)/2if there exist v,sN,v>0,nd=1+52v+12v2,d=5+2vs,0otherwise.\tau_{n,d}(t)= \begin{cases} t^{v(v-1)/2} & \text{if there exist }v,s\in\mathbb{N},\\ v>0,\\ n-d=-1+\frac52v+\frac12v^2,\\ d=5+2vs,\\\\ 0 & \text{otherwise.} \end{cases}

The formula is inferred from computational data for the difference between the actual annihilator Hilbert series and the two predicted lower bounds; it is used to derive formulas for the associated principal-ideal series.
