Conjecture on A_f stratifications for polar representations

About 28 years old · traced to

Let G ∣ VG\,|\,V be a polar representation, let f:V→Qf:V\to Q be the quotient map, and set

E=f−1(0).E=f^{-1}(0).

An AfA_f stratification is the stratification condition described in Section 2.2.1. The A_f stratification conjecture. There exists an AfA_f stratification of EE.

This conjecture would make the sheaf construction used in the paper well defined for every polar representation, eliminating the need to restrict to representations of rank one or to visible representations. The source does not provide evidence of a resolution.
