Stanley–Hibi–Li conjecture for marked chain and order polytopes

Let (P,A,λ)(P,A,\mathbf{\lambda}) be a marked poset. For an NN-dimensional polytope QQ, let fi(Q)f_i(Q) denote the number of its ii-dimensional faces, and write CP,A(λ)\mathcal{C}_{P,A}(\mathbf{\lambda}) and OP,A(λ)\mathcal{O}_{P,A}(\mathbf{\lambda}) for the marked chain and marked order polytopes. Stanley–Hibi–Li conjecture. For all i=0,1,,PAi=0,1,\ldots,|P\setminus A|,

fi(CP,A(λ))fi(OP,A(λ)).f_i(\mathcal{C}_{P,A}(\mathbf{\lambda}))\geq f_i(\mathcal{O}_{P,A}(\mathbf{\lambda})).

The original conjecture concerned unmarked chain and order polytopes; the facet case is known for marked chain and marked order polytopes, while the zero-dimensional marked case remains open, and the full marked statement is therefore unresolved.
