Lusztig's conjecture as a moment graph problem

We show that Lusztig’s conjecture on the irreducible characters of a reductive algebraic group over a field of positive characteristic is equivalent to the generic multiplicity conjecture, which gives a formula for the Jordan-H"older multiplicities of baby Verma modules over the corresponding Lie algebra. Then we give a short overview of a recent proof of the latter conjecture for almost all base fields via the theory of sheaves on moment graphs.
