The essential-set containment conjecture for simply-laced root systems

Let Δ\Delta be a simply-laced root system with highest root θ\theta, and let θ\theta be fundamental. For a simple root α\alpha, let \EuScriptFα\EuScript F_{\alpha} be the associated minimal inversion complete set, let I(α)maxI(\alpha)_{\max} be its maximal abelian ideal, and let Ess(\EuScriptFα)\mathsf{Ess}(\EuScript F_{\alpha}) denote its essential set. Let H\mathcal H be the set denoted by \EuScriptH{\EuScript H} in the source. Essential-set containment conjecture.

(Ess(\EuScriptFα)I(α)max)H.\bigl(\mathsf{Ess}(\EuScript F_{\alpha})\setminus I(\alpha)_{\max}\bigr)\subset \mathcal H.

This conjecture concerns the remaining cases for the series Dn\mathrm{D}_n and En\mathrm{E}_n in which the highest root is fundamental; the paper reports only partial computations supporting it, so its general validity remains open.
