Conjecture on homological dimensions and Lusztig's a-function in category O

At least 19 years old · documented by

Let g\mathfrak{g} be a semi-simple complex finite-dimensional Lie algebra, let WW be its Weyl group with longest element w0w_0, and let t(w)\mathfrak{t}(w) and i(w)\mathfrak{i}(w) denote respectively the projective dimensions of the indecomposable tilting and injective modules indexed by w∈Ww\in W. Let a:W→Z\mathbf{a}:W\to\mathbb{Z} be Lusztig's function, constant on two-sided cells. The homological-dimension conjecture. For all w∈Ww\in W,

t(w)=a(w),i(w)=2a(w0w).\mathfrak{t}(w)=\mathbf{a}(w),\qquad \mathfrak{i}(w)=2\mathbf{a}(w_0w).

The conjecture is motivated by computations in type A2A_2 and other examples, together with the cellwise constancy properties of the relevant functions. The source does not state a resolution.
