The principal nilpotent-pair conjecture for non-exceptional pairs
The principal nilpotent-pair conjecture for non-exceptional pairs
Let be a simple Lie algebra with Cartan subalgebra , let , and let be a principal nilpotent pair. Let be the associated subgroup of finite index in the automorphism group of , let be its diagonal orbit, and let be the Weyl group. Define
where the intersection is scheme-theoretic. Assume that is non-exceptional. Principal nilpotent-pair conjecture. The scheme is Gorenstein, and supports the regular representation of ; in particular,
This conjecture is presented as a variant of a conjecture of Ginzburg; the original version is false, while the stated non-exceptional variant is the main conjecture of the paper.
