This conjecture was checked in [GL21] for some t-motives of ranks $r=4$ and 5, and of $n=2$. We show in the present paper that it is true for Drinfeld modules and their duals. Since the dimension of the dual of a Drinfeld module of rank $r$ is $r-1$, this is the first checking of this conjecture for $n>2$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-02-27T02:33:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11G09" ], "keywords": [ "drinfeld module", "affine equation", "conjecture", "anderson t-motives" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
