GPSS conjecture for geometric progress singularity-series

About 28 years old · traced to

For integers r≥4r\geq 4 and k≥2k\geq 2, consider the cyclic Gorenstein quotient singularity of type

1(kr−1k−1)(1,k,k2,k3,…,kr−2,kr−1).\frac{1}{\left(\frac{k^r-1}{k-1}\right)}\left(1,k,k^2,k^3,\ldots,k^{r-2},k^{r-1}\right).

GPSS conjecture. All such cyclic Gorenstein quotient singularities admit torus-equivariant projective, crepant, full resolutions. The theorem immediately preceding the conjecture proves the first member with k=2k=2 in every dimension r≥2r\geq 2 and establishes uniqueness there, whereas the asserted existence for all r≥4r\geq4 and k≥2k\geq2 is presented as a conjecture and is not resolved in the supplied text.
