The categorical McKay correspondence conjecture for finite simply-laced Dynkin diagrams
The categorical McKay correspondence conjecture for finite simply-laced Dynkin diagrams
Let be a simply-laced Dynkin diagram with Coxeter number . A triangulated category is equipped with an exact twist functor .
Categorical McKay correspondence conjecture. There exists such a category and functor satisfying all of the following: is 2-periodic, with ; every object has a canonical functorial isomorphism ; and, for the Grothendieck group equipped with the inner product defined in the source, the indecomposable objects form a simply-laced root system whose Coxeter element is . Choosing a parity function with on adjacent vertices, the indecomposables are naturally bijective with
with , and are denoted . Their Hom and Ext groups, path-algebra description, and the equivalences for every height function satisfy precisely properties (5) and (6) of the conjecture in the source.
This conjecture proposes a finite-type analogue of the categorical construction of affine root systems arising from the McKay correspondence. It predicts a category whose indecomposable objects encode the root system and whose twist realizes the Coxeter element; the source provides the detailed Hom, Ext, quiver, and derived-equivalence requirements but does not state a resolution.
