Polynomial growth conjecture for Specht multiplicities of symmetric real algebraic sets

From papers

Let Λn=R[X1,,Xn]Sn\Lambda_n=\mathrm{R}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]^{\mathfrak{S}_n} be the graded ring of invariant polynomials, let Λ=limΛn\Lambda=\varprojlim \Lambda_n, and let I=(f1,,fk)I=(f_1,\ldots,f_k) be a finitely generated ideal of Λ\Lambda. Write

Vn(I)=Zer(ϕn(f1),,ϕn(fk))RnV_n(I)=\operatorname{Zer}(\phi_n(f_1),\ldots,\phi_n(f_k))\subset \mathrm{R}^n

for the associated symmetric real algebraic sets. For a fixed partition λ=(λ1,,λ)d\lambda=(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_\ell)\vdash d, set {λ}n=(nd,λ1,,λ)\{\lambda\}_n=(n-d,\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_\ell) for nλ1+dn\geq \lambda_1+d, and let mp,{λ}n(Vn(I))m_{p,\{\lambda\}_n}(V_n(I)) denote the multiplicity of the Specht module indexed by {λ}n\{\lambda\}_n in the relevant cohomology module of Vn(I)V_n(I).

Polynomial growth conjecture. For any fixed p0p\geq 0, mp,{λ}n(Vn(I))m_{p,\{\lambda\}_n}(V_n(I)) is eventually given by a polynomial in nn.

This conjecture predicts polynomial growth for the multiplicities of stable Specht modules in the cohomology of sequences of symmetric real algebraic sets, extending the representational stability phenomenon to this setting. Its resolution status is not established by the supplied source material.
