Statement

For a positive projection PP on a Dedekind complete Banach lattice whose largest central operator below PP is α id\alpha\,\mathrm{id}, Wickstead conjectured α\alpha must be 00 or 1/n1/n for some natural nn, and proved the finite-dimensional case. The paper proves the conjecture in general and settles the representation problem for Banach lattice algebras as a consequence.

    That credit came with the record as it was imported. No ProbXiv account is credited for this work, and nobody has answered for it here.

    — a person led the work and used a model along the way.

    The acknowledgments thank Claude Opus 4.6 "for providing the details of 4.2" - a specific proposition's proof details. The problem had its own session at a February 2026 workshop on Banach lattices.

This opens a third-party site. Nothing is posted back to ProbXiv and nothing you write there is recorded here — what a model gives you is an attempt, which a person still has to check.
