The reduced LMOV conjecture for the framed unknot

Let τZ\tau\in\mathbb{Z} be a framing and let

Zτ(q,x)=n0(1)n(τ1)qn(n1)2τ+n22(1q)(1q2)(1qn)xnZ_{\tau}(q,x)=\sum_{n\geq 0}\frac{(-1)^{n(\tau-1)}q^{\frac{n(n-1)}{2}\tau+\frac{n^2}{2}}}{(1-q)(1-q^2)\cdots(1-q^n)}x^n

be the reduced open string partition function of (C3,Dτ)(\mathbb{C}^3,D_{\tau}). The reduced LMOV conjecture. There exist nonnegative integers Nm,k(τ)N_{m,k}(\tau), with only finitely many nonzero for each fixed m1m\geq1, such that

Zτ(q,x)=m1kZl0(1qk2+lxm)Nm,k(τ).Z_{\tau}(q,x)=\prod_{m\geq1}\prod_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}\prod_{l\geq0}\left(1-q^{\frac{k}{2}+l}x^m\right)^{N_{m,k}(\tau)}.

This is a reduced, weak form of the LMOV integrality conjecture for the framed unknot; the supplied text does not state whether it has been proved or disproved.
