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

On the small phase space, write τm1τms\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,

rs3(s3)!τm1τmsZ;\frac{r^{s-3}}{(s-3)!}\langle\tau_{m_1}\cdots\tau_{m_s}\rangle\in\mathbb Z;

(ii) vanishing, if mi<s3m_i<s-3 for some 1is1\leq i\leq s, then

τm1τms=0;\langle\tau_{m_1}\cdots\tau_{m_s}\rangle=0;

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

τm11τm2+1τm3τmsτm1τm2τms.\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.
