Köhler–Roessler relative equivariant fixed-point formula conjecture

About 25 years old · traced to

Let YY and BB be μn\mu_n-equivariant arithmetic varieties over an arithmetic ring DD, and let f:Y→Bf:Y\to B be flat, μn\mu_n-projective, and smooth over the complex numbers. Write YμnY_{\mu_n} and BμnB_{\mu_n} for the fixed loci, let fμn:Yμn→Bμnf^{\mu_n}:Y_{\mu_n}\to B_{\mu_n} be the induced map, and let λ−1\lambda_{-1} and RgR_g have their usual equivariant K-theoretic and equivariant RR-genus meanings. Define

M(f)=(λ−1(NY/Yμn∨))−1λ−1(f∗NB/Bμn∨)(1−Rg(NY/Yμn)+Rg(f∗NB/Bμn)).M(f)=\bigl(\lambda_{-1}(N_{Y/Y_{\mu_n}}^{\vee})\bigr)^{-1}\lambda_{-1}(f^{*}N_{B/B_{\mu_n}}^{\vee})\bigl(1-R_g(N_{Y/Y_{\mu_n}})+R_g(f^{*}N_{B/B_{\mu_n}})\bigr).

Relative fixed-point formula conjecture. The diagram

commutes. This conjecturally generalizes the fixed-point theorem of Köhler and Roessler to the relative setting; the source does not establish commutativity in general.
