Multiline-queue Markov-chain conjecture for inhomogeneous multispecies TASEP weights

Let Q\mathcal Q be a multiline queue with state space ΩmFM\Omega^{FM}_m, and let Ωm\Omega_m be the state space of the corresponding inhomogeneous multispecies exclusion process. For 1i<rn1\leq i<r\leq n, let zr,i(Q)z_{r,i}(\mathcal Q) be the number of vacancies on row rr that are ii-covered by bully paths. Let vr=NMrv_r=N-M_r be the number of vacancies on row rr, and define

Vr=i=r+1n1vi.V_r=\sum_{i=r+1}^{n-1}v_i.

Let BB denote the bully-path projection from multiline queues to particle configurations. Multiline-queue Markov-chain conjecture. There is a Markov chain on ΩmFM\Omega^{FM}_m which lumps via BB to the inhomogeneous multispecies exclusion process on Ωm\Omega_m, such that the stationary weight of every configuration Q\mathcal Q is

w(Q)=x1V1x2V2xn2Vn21i<rn(xrxi)zr,i.w(\mathcal Q)=x_1^{V_1}x_2^{V_2}\dots x_{n-2}^{V_{n-2}}\prod_{1\leq i<r\leq n}\left(\frac{x_r}{x_i}\right)^{z_{r,i}}.

This conjecture would give a combinatorial realization of the Lam–Williams stationary weights and extend them to multipermutations. The paper reports partial results supporting it, but says that it has not been settled in full generality.
