SHGH conjecture for equal multiplicities at general points

Let Z=p1+cdots+pseqP2Z=p_1+cdots+p_s eq\mathbb P^2 be a union of general points, where either ss is a square or s>8s>8, and let I(mZ)I(mZ) denote the degree-mm fat-point ideal. SHGH conjecture. The dimension of its degree-tt piece is

dim[I(mZ)]t=max{0,(t+22)s(m+12)}.\dim [I(mZ)]_t=\max\left\{0,\binom{t+2}{2}-s\binom{m+1}{2}\right\}.

This is presented as a special case of the Segre–Harbourne–Gimigliano–Hirschowitz conjecture, which predicts when general fat points impose independent conditions; the stated case remains conjectural.
