Kazhdan-Laumon Categories and Representations by Morton-Ferguson, Calder

“…After Bezrukavnikov and Polishchuk’s counterexample to Kazhdan and Laumon’s original conjecture, Polishchuk made an alternative conjecture: though the counterexample shows that the Grothendieck group K₀(A) is not spanned by objects of finite projective dimension, he noted that a graded version of K₀(A) can be thought of as a module over Laurent polynomials and conjectured that a certain localization of this module is generated by objects of finite projective dimension. …”
