The weight-one rational-function conjecture for quotient singularities with crepant resolutions

Let VV be a vector space and let GSL(V)G\subset SL(V) be finite. Set X=V/GX=V/G, and assume that XX admits a smooth crepant resolution YXY\to X. For a cyclic subgroup g(μr)Gg(\mu_r)\subset G, let g:μrGg:\mu_r\to G denote the corresponding homomorphism, let K(V)K(V) be the field of rational functions on VV, and let χ\chi be the fundamental character of μr\mu_r. Weight-one rational-function conjecture. For every cyclic subgroup g(μr)Gg(\mu_r)\subset G, there exists a GG-invariant rational function fK(V)f\in K(V) of weight 11 for the induced g(μr)g(\mu_r)-action; equivalently,

g(a)f=χ(a)fg(a)\cdot f=\chi(a)f

for every aμra\in\mu_r. This is an algebraic formulation of the preceding conjectural condition on cyclic subgroups. The paper relates it to the existence of smooth crepant resolutions, but the supplied text does not establish it in general.
