What this page covers
The multilinear identities of $M_{4}(F)$ in degree $d$ form a representation of the symmetric group $S_d$, which decomposes into Specht modules $S^\lambda$ with multiplicities $m_\lambda$, $0\le m_\lambda\le f^\lambda$. The database stores one row for every partition $\lambda$ of $d$ and every family below, with a status that says what is actually proved. A partition that is not stored is not claimed: absence is never a zero.
Rows: 4869, of which 1600 are exact. Database version: 2026-11-10.

Weak identities for traceless matrices
Weak identities of the pair $(M_{4},\mathfrak{sl}_{4})$: polynomials that vanish when every variable is replaced by a traceless matrix. These are not ordinary identities of $M_{4}(F)$.

Status legend
- exact: certified equality, from matching certified lower and upper bounds. A zero is certified only in this status.
- probable: exact upper bound plus a randomized test with an explicit one-sided error bound. Not a proof.
- lower bound and upper bound: only the stated inequality is certified.
- unchecked: no certified direction; do not use the number.
