Generalized-Fibonacci form of pre-moments for fixed dd

About 9 years old · traced to

Let Xd,nX_{d,n} be the size of a uniformly random (n,dn−1)(n,dn-1)-core partition with distinct parts. For a natural number kk, let mk(d,n)m_k(d,n) denote its kkth pre-moment, and let Nd(n)N_d(n) denote the generalized Fibonacci sequence used in the source.

Generalized-Fibonacci pre-moment conjecture. For each dd, the kkth pre-moment mk(d,n)m_k(d,n) of Xd,nX_{d,n} is of the form

a(n)Nd(n)+b(n)Nd(n+1),a(n)N_d(n)+b(n)N_d(n+1),

where aa and bb are polynomials in nn.

This conjecture extends the corresponding fixed-parameter formulas known in the source's earlier work. The source says that experimental evidence verifies the claim, but supplies no proof or database resolution.
