Multiplicity inequality for simple transversal modules on a non-commutative smooth surface

Let AA be the graded algebra defining the non-commutative smooth surface X=ProjAX=\operatorname{Proj} A, let Y=ProjA/gAY=\operatorname{Proj} A/gA be the divisor defined by the central degree-three element gg, and let transY(X)\operatorname{trans}_Y(X) denote the class of objects transverse to YY. For MtransY(X)\mathcal M\in\operatorname{trans}_Y(X), write rp,n=rp,n(M)r_{p,n}=r_{p,n}(\mathcal M) for the multiplicities of the points infinitely near to pYp\in Y, and write e=e(M)e=e(\mathcal M) for its multiplicity. Assume that the image of M\mathcal M in mod(X)/Cf\operatorname{mod}(X)/\mathcal C_f is simple.

Multiplicity inequality. The following inequality holds:

p,nrp,n(rp,n1)2(e1)(e2)2.\sum_{p,n} \frac{r_{p,n}(r_{p,n}-1)}{2}\leq \frac{(e-1)(e-2)}{2}.

This is presented as a conjectural analogue of the corresponding multiplicity bound for objects on commutative smooth surfaces. The supplied source does not state whether the inequality has been proved or disproved, so its status remains open.
