Span-intersection conjecture for upper and lower roots
Span-intersection conjecture for upper and lower roots
Let be a finite Coxeter group of rank , let be a Coxeter element, and let be a -cluster, where the are its lower roots and the are its upper roots. Let be the recursively defined map on roots, and write for the hyperplane orthogonal to . Span-intersection conjecture. One has
The two spaces have the same dimension, and the required orthogonality has been verified computationally for all Coxeter elements in Coxeter groups of rank at most ; proving the equality would remove the recursive map from the description of the associated noncrossing subspace.
