Conjectural integrality, vanishing and multinomial distribution of small-phase-space r-spin numbers

About 15 years old · traced to

On the small phase space, write ⟨τm1⋯τms⟩\langle\tau_{m_1}\cdots\tau_{m_s}\rangle for the corresponding rr-spin correlation number. The conjectured properties concern integers m1,…,msm_1,\ldots,m_s and the number of insertions ss. Conjectural properties. The following hold: (i) integrality,

rs−3(s−3)!⟨τm1⋯τms⟩∈Z;\frac{r^{s-3}}{(s-3)!}\langle\tau_{m_1}\cdots\tau_{m_s}\rangle\in\mathbb Z;

(ii) vanishing, if mi<s−3m_i<s-3 for some 1≤i≤s1\leq i\leq s, then

⟨τm1⋯τms⟩=0;\langle\tau_{m_1}\cdots\tau_{m_s}\rangle=0;

and (iii) multinomial distribution, if m1>m2m_1>m_2, then

⟨τm1−1τm2+1τm3⋯τms⟩≥⟨τm1τm2⋯τms⟩.\langle\tau_{m_1-1}\tau_{m_2+1}\tau_{m_3}\cdots\tau_{m_s}\rangle\geq\langle\tau_{m_1}\tau_{m_2}\cdots\tau_{m_s}\rangle.

These properties are proposed as conjectural features of rr-spin numbers on the small phase space. The supplied text does not state whether they have been proved or disproved.
