Hausel–Letellier–Villegas' mixed Hodge polynomial formula for character varieties

Let C{\bf C} be a generic tuple of conjugacy classes of GLn(C)\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb{C}), with type ωTo{\bm\omega}\in\overline{{\mathbf{T}}}^{o}, and let dCd_{\bf C} denote the dimension parameter of the associated character variety. Write IHc(MC;q,t):=IHc(MC;q,q,t)IH_c({\mathcal{M}}_{\overline{{\bf C}}};q,t):=IH_c({\mathcal{M}}_{\overline{{\bf C}}};\sqrt q,\sqrt q,t). Hausel–Letellier–Villegas' mixed Hodge polynomial conjecture. The mixed Hodge polynomial depends only on qq and tt and satisfies

IHc(MC;q,t)=(tq)dCHω(1q,tq).IH_c({\mathcal{M}}_{\overline{{\bf C}}};q,t)=(t\sqrt q)^{d_{\bf C}}\mathbb{H}_{\bm\omega}\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt q},t\sqrt q\right).

The formula is stated for generic tuples and is presented as the main conjecture; the source gives no resolution status.
