The uniqueness conjecture for critical points of Bethe phase functions
Let be a simple Lie algebra, let be representations of , and let be the corresponding phase function in variables assigned to the simple roots. Critical points satisfy , and points related by permutations of variables assigned to the same simple root are identified. Uniqueness conjecture. If the space of singular vectors of a given weight in is one-dimensional, then the corresponding phase function has exactly one critical point modulo permutations of variables assigned to the same simple root. This holds for by the stated symmetric-function description, while the general case is left open.
