The hypertree F-positivity conjecture

About 11 years old · traced to

Let H=(V,E)H=(V,E) be a hypertree, and let XHX_H denote its chromatic symmetric function. The FF-basis is the fundamental quasisymmetric-function basis. Hypertree F-positivity conjecture. For every hypertree HH, XHX_H is FF-positive. This would follow from finding the required partition of the nonconstant colorings for every edge size; the result is established when all edge sizes are prime, and also for edge size 44, but remains open in general.
