General form conjecture for semiclassical moment generating functions

Let gg be a positive integer, let β=1\beta=1 in the orthogonal case and β=2\beta=2 in the unitary case, and let ξ\xi and ss be the variables used in the generating functions T2gβT_{2g}^\beta. Write P2gβ(ξ,s)P_{2g}^\beta(\xi,s) for a polynomial in ξ\xi and ss. General form conjecture. The generating functions have the form

T2gβ=(ξs)β(1s)(2g+1)/2(1s+4ξs)(6g1)/2P2gβ(ξ,s),T_{2g}^\beta=(\xi s)^\beta(1-s)^{-(2g+1)/2}(1-s+4\xi s)^{-(6g-1)/2}P_{2g}^\beta(\xi,s),

where P2gβ(ξ,s)P_{2g}^\beta(\xi,s) is of order 2gβ2g-\beta in ξ\xi and of order 2(2gβ)2(2g-\beta) in ss. This proposed form is inferred from the cases 2g=1,2,3,42g=1,2,3,4 and predicts a uniform algebraic structure for the orthogonal and unitary moment generating functions beyond the computed orders.
