The exact eme_m-killer conjecture for the Grassmannian cohomology ring

About 23 years old · traced to

Let Rk,ℓR^{k,\ell} be the graded cohomology ring of the Grassmannian, with generators e1,…,eke_1,\ldots,e_k, and let Rk,ℓ,m−1R^{k,\ell,m-1} be the subalgebra generated by e1,…,em−1e_1,\ldots,e_{m-1}.

The exact eme_m-killer conjecture. For 1≤m≤k1\leq m\leq k,

≠me1kℓ−m2+1∈Rk,ℓ,m−1.\ne_m e_1^{k\ell-m^2+1}\in R^{k,\ell,m-1}.

This is a concrete consequence of the filtration-saturation claim: it asserts that the indicated product involving the next generator is already expressible using the preceding generators. The supplied source gives no resolution status.
