Negative extended-Shi conjectures for negative powers of the nabla operator
Let be the dilated simplex associated with bounded chambers of the -extended Shi arrangement, and let and be the corresponding statistics on its alcoves. Define
Let denote the same sum over alcoves whose inverses lie in the dominant cone . Write for the -integer and for the -binomial coefficient. Negative extended-Shi conjectures. The following assertions hold:
- is the Hilbert series of .
- .
- is the Hilbert series for the sign-isotypic component of .
- .
The conjectures propose a combinatorial interpretation of negative powers of the nabla operator using bounded chambers of extended Shi arrangements, extending the positive-power picture. The source explicitly says that no combinatorial conjectures for negative powers had previously been available and gives no resolution evidence in the provided text.
