The cohomology tensor-product conjecture for the Coxeter complex

About 21 years old · traced to

Let GG be a group with spherical generating data (S,S)(S,\mathcal {S}), let BB be the subgroup used to form the Coxeter complex ∣Φ∣|\Phi|, and let KK be the associated chamber complex. Write AqA_{\mathbf q} for the Hecke algebra, I(Aq)\mathcal {I}(A_{\mathbf q}) for the coefficient system on KK, and let F(G/B)F(G/B) be the right GG-module of finitely supported Q\mathbf Q-valued functions on G/BG/B. For each degree ii, write Hci(∣Φ∣)H^i_c(|\Phi|) for compactly supported cohomology and Hi(K;I(Aq))H^i(K;\mathcal {I}(A_{\mathbf q})) for cohomology with these coefficients.

The cohomology tensor-product conjecture. There is an equality

Hci(∣Φ∣)=Hi(K;I(Aq))⊗AqF(G/B).H^i_c(|\Phi|)=H^i(K;\mathcal {I}(A_{\mathbf q}))\otimes_{A_{\mathbf q}}F(G/B).

The preceding cochain-level tensor-product identity makes this the natural expected extension to cohomology. The source does not provide evidence resolving the conjecture.
