Felder–Hemery–Veselov conjecture on zeros of Wronskians of Hermite polynomials

From papers

Let HλH_\lambda denote the Wronskian Hermite polynomial associated with a partition λ\lambda. A doubled partition has the form

λ=(μ12,,μn2).\lambda=(\mu_1^2,\dots,\mu_n^2).

Felder–Hemery–Veselov conjecture. For every doubled partition λ=(μ12,,μn2)\lambda=(\mu_1^2,\dots,\mu_n^2), HλH_\lambda has no real roots and has as many imaginary roots as there are odd numbers in the partition.

This conjecture concerns the location and multiplicity-free behavior of roots of Wronskians of Hermite polynomials. The source attributes it to Felder et al.; it is stated there as a conjecture, and no resolution is supplied.
