Generators of truncated symmetric polynomials

Abstract

Adem and Reichstein introduced the ideal of truncated symmetric polynomials to present the permutation invariant subring in the cohomology of a finite product of projective spaces. Building upon their work, I describe a generating set of the ideal of truncated symmetric polynomials in arbitrary positive characteristic, and offer a conjecture for minimal generators.
