Abstract: Let $K$ denote a field and let $V$ denote a vector space over $K$ with finite positive dimension. Let $End(V)$ denote the $K$-algebra consisting of all $K$-linear transformations from $V$ to $V$. We consider a pair $A,A^{\ast }inEnd(V)$ that satisfy (i)--(iv) below: (i) Each of $A,A^{\ast }$ is diagonalizable. (ii) There exists an ordering ${V_i}_{i=0}^d$ of the eigenspaces of $A$ such that $A^{\ast }{V}_{i}subseteq{V}_{i-1}+V_i+V_{i+1}$ for $0leqileqd$, where $V_{-1}=0$ and $V_{d+1}=0$. (iii) There exists an ordering ${V_i^{\ast }}_{i=0}^{d}elta$ of the eigenspaces of $A^{\ast }$ such that $A{V}_i^{\ast }subseteq{V}_{i-1}^{\ast }+V_i^{\ast }+V_{i+1}^{\ast }$ for $0leqileqdelta$, where $V_{-1}^{\ast }=0$ and $V_{delta+1}^{\ast }=0$. (iv) There is no subspace $W$ of $V$ such that $AWsubseteqW$, $A^{\ast }WsubseteqW$, $Weq0$, $WeqV$. We call such a pair a {em tridiagonal pair} on $V$. Let $E_0^{\ast }$ denote the element of $End(V)$ such that $(E_0^{\ast }-I)V_0^{\ast }=0$ and $E_0^{\ast }{V}_i^{\ast }=0$ for $1leqileqd$. Let $D$ (resp. $D^{\ast }$) denote the $K$-subalgebra of $End(V)$ generated by $A$ (resp. $A^{\ast }$). In this paper we prove that the span of $E_0^{\ast }D{D}^{\ast }D{E}_0^{\ast }$ equals the span of $E_0^{\ast }D{E}_0^{\ast }D{E}_0^{\ast }$, and that the elements of $E_0^{\ast }D{E}_0^{\ast }$ mutually commute. We relate these results to some conjectures of Tatsuro Ito and the second author that are expected to play a role in the classification of tridiagonal pairs.
