The canonical-basis description of the principal-subspace ideal

From papers

Let I0I_0 be the ideal associated with the principal subspace W0W_0 in the completed quantum loop-algebra positive part, let C0\mathcal{C}_0 be the class of sheaves FO(l1)O(ln)\mathcal{F}\simeq\mathcal{O}(l_1)\oplus\cdots\oplus\mathcal{O}(l_n) with l1<l2<<ln<0l_1<l_2<\cdots<l_n<0 and li+1li2l_{i+1}-l_i\geq2, and define

PW0={IC(F)FC0}.\mathcal{P}_{W_0}=\{\mathbf{IC}(\mathcal{F})\mid\mathcal{F}\in\mathcal{C}_0\}.

Write bP\mathbf{b}_{\mathbb{P}} for the canonical basis element indexed by P\mathbb{P}. Principal-subspace ideal conjecture. One has

I0=^PPW0AbP.I_0=\widehat{\bigoplus}_{\mathbb{P}\notin\mathcal{P}_{W_0}}\mathbb{A}\mathbf{b}_{\mathbb{P}}.

This identifies the ideal through the canonical basis and would give a precise basis-theoretic description of the principal subspace quotient. The source presents it as conjectural; no resolution is supplied.
