The canonical symmetrizing form conjecture for complex reflection group Hecke algebras

At least 22 years old · documented by

Let WW be a finite complex reflection group, let W′W' be a parabolic subgroup, and let H(W){\mathcal H}(W) be the associated Hecke algebra. A canonical symmetrizing form on H(W){\mathcal H}(W) is the form satisfying the properties whose uniqueness was established by Broué, Malle and Michel. Canonical symmetrizing form conjecture. The canonical symmetrizing form on H(W){\mathcal H}(W) exists, and its restriction to every parabolic subalgebra H(W′){\mathcal H}(W') is the canonical symmetrizing form. The source notes that existence is not known in general, although constructions are available for complex reflection groups of rank 22 and for groups of higher rank; the conjecture is known for Weyl groups only in the later centre-related result, not as a general resolution of this existence statement.
