The lex-plus-powers conjecture asserts that the lex-plus-powers ideal
supplied by the Eisenbud-Green-Harris
conjecture also bounds the graded
Betti numbers of the original quotient. For a homogeneous
ideal
over a field
containing a ring regular
sequence of homogeneous polynomials
of total degrees
, it asserts the existence of such

with the same Hilbert function and
The inequality is required simultaneously for all integers and
