The B2B_2 eigenfunction conjecture for the series fB2f^{B_2}

Let s1,s2s_1,s_2 be generic parameters, and let λ1,λ2\lambda_1,\lambda_2 satisfy s1=tT1/2qλ1s_1=tT^{1/2}q^{\lambda_1} and s2=T1/2qλ2s_2=T^{1/2}q^{\lambda_2}. Define the series fB2(x1,x2;s1,s2,q,t,T)f^{B_2}(x_1,x_2;s_1,s_2,q,t,T) by the displayed expansion in the source, with coefficients fnB2f^{B_2}_n and cB2c^{B_2} as specified there. Let Eω1(q,t,T)E_{\omega_1}(q,t,T) denote the operator used in the source. The B2B_2 eigenfunction conjecture. The series fB2(x1,x2;s1,s2,q,t,T)f^{B_2}(x_1,x_2;s_1,s_2,q,t,T) satisfies

Eω1(q,t,T)fB2(x1,x2;s1,s2,q,t,T)=tT1/2(s1+s2+s11+s21)fB2(x1,x2;s1,s2,q,t,T).E_{\omega_1}(q,t,T)f^{B_2}(x_1,x_2;s_1,s_2,q,t,T)=tT^{1/2}(s_1+s_2+s_1^{-1}+s_2^{-1})f^{B_2}(x_1,x_2;s_1,s_2,q,t,T).

This asserts that the explicitly constructed B2B_2 series is an eigenfunction of the relevant difference operator, with eigenvalue determined by the parameters. The supplied text gives no resolution status or further context, so the claim is recorded as open pending verification.
