There was a conjecture which claims that the dimensions of the higher extension groups between Verma modules are the coefficients of $R$-polynomials defined by Kazhdan-Lusztig. This conjecture was known as the Gabber-Joseph conjecture (although Gebber and Joseph did not state.) However, Boe gives a counterexample to this conjecture. In this paper, we study how far are the dimensions of extension groups from the coefficients of $R$-polynomials.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-02-28T08:46:26.000Z", "comment": "15 pages", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2025-01-17T02:14:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "17B10", "17B55" ], "keywords": [ "first extension groups", "verma modules", "polynomials", "higher extension groups", "dimensions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1003.0169A" } } }
