Conjecture on the leading weight of functions on a finite nilpotent-orbit cover
Conjecture on the leading weight of functions on a finite nilpotent-orbit cover
Let be a nilpotent orbit in the Lie algebra of the Langlands dual group, let be the dual nilpotent orbit, and let be the associated finite cover. Write the -module of global functions as
and let be a weight of largest length with . Leading-weight conjecture. The weight is unique and is the Dynkin weight of . This is a more concrete formulation for the associated finite cover: it predicts that the highest-length induced representation occurring in its coordinate ring is uniquely determined by the Dynkin weight of the Langlands-dual orbit. The source does not give a resolution, so the claim remains open.
