The (q,t)(q,t) Catalan character conjecture for rational Cherednik algebras

About 24 years old · traced to

Let nn be the symmetric-group parameter, let W=SnW=S_n, let e\mathbf e be the symmetrizing idempotent, let Lc(triv)L_c(\mathsf{triv}) be the irreducible spherical lowest-weight module, and let T\mathbb T act on the relevant associated graded spaces and on the Hilbert scheme. Write Hilbon(C2){\sf Hilb}^n_o(\mathbb C^2) for the punctual Hilbert scheme and L\mathcal L for its relevant line bundle. For c=1n+kc=\frac{1}{n}+k, with k=0,1,…k=0,1,\ldots, one has the canonical T\mathbb T-module isomorphism

gr(e ⁣⋅ ⁣Lc(triv))≃H0(Hilbon(C2),L⊗k).{\mathtt{gr}}\bigl(\mathbf e\!\cdot\! L_c(\mathsf{triv})\bigr)\simeq H^0\bigl({\sf Hilb}^n_o(\mathbb C^2),\mathcal L^{\otimes k}\bigr).

The (q,t)(q,t) Catalan character conjecture. In particular, χe⋅L(triv)(q,t)=Cn(k)(q,t)\chi_{\mathbf e\cdot L(\mathsf{triv})}(q,t)=C_n^{(k)}(q,t), the (q,t)(q,t) Catalan number. This conjecture refines the corresponding dimension formula and connects finite-dimensional rational Cherednik-algebra representations with the geometry of Hilbert schemes; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
