Berenstein–Zelevinsky's multiplicativity conjecture for dual canonical basis vectors

About 24 years old · traced to

Let QQ be a Dynkin quiver of type cAncA_n, cDncD_n or cE6,7,8cE_{6,7,8}, let Uv−U_v^- be the negative part of the quantized enveloping algebra of the corresponding Lie algebra, and let cmathcalB∗{cmathcal B}^* be its dual canonical basis. For C,D∈cmathcalB∗C,D\in {cmathcal B}^*, call CC and DD multiplicative if their product is a scalar multiple of a single dual canonical basis vector, and quasi-commutative if CD=λDCCD=\lambda DC for some λ∈Q(v)\lambda\in\mathbb{Q}(v). Berenstein–Zelevinsky's conjecture. Two dual canonical basis vectors are multiplicative if and only if they are quasi-commutative. One direction was proved by Reineke, but Leclerc constructed quasi-commutative elements that are not multiplicative, so the conjecture is refuted.
