Fulton's multiplicity-one conjecture for tensor products of GL(n) representations
Let be a triple of dominant weights for , and let be the corresponding irreducible representations. Fulton's conjecture. If occurs exactly once as a constituent of , then for every , occurs exactly once as a constituent of . This multiplicity-one assertion concerns the stability of Littlewood–Richardson coefficients under simultaneous scaling of the highest weights. The source presents it as a conjecture proposed by William Fulton; its resolution is indicated by the source's comparison with the proven saturation conjecture.
