Conjecture on uniqueness of conformal-block solutions of the Macdonald–Ruijsenaars equations

At least 19 years old · documented by

Let Λ⃗∈Z≥0n[2m]\vec\Lambda\in\mathbb Z_{\ge0}^n[2{\mathfrak m}], and let MΘ\mathbb M_\Theta be the Macdonald–Ruijsenaars operator acting on LΛ⃗[0]L_{\vec\Lambda}[0]-valued trigonometric polynomials. The space Conf⁡Λ⃗\operatorname{Conf}_{\vec\Lambda} is spanned by the Weyl anti-symmetric hypergeometric conformal blocks ϑm⃗(λ)\vartheta^{\vec m}(\lambda). Generic conformal-block uniqueness conjecture. If ϑ(λ)\vartheta(\lambda) is a Weyl anti-symmetric LΛ⃗[0]L_{\vec\Lambda}[0]-valued trigonometric polynomial satisfying

MΘϑ(λ)=(dim⁡qLΘ)ϑ(λ),\mathbb M_\Theta\vartheta(\lambda)=(\dim_q L_\Theta)\vartheta(\lambda),

then ϑ(λ)∈Conf⁡Λ⃗\vartheta(\lambda)\in\operatorname{Conf}_{\vec\Lambda}. The conformal blocks are known to satisfy these equations, and the conjecture asserts that they exhaust the trigonometric polynomial solutions; its general validity remains open.
