The levelness conjecture for a family of s-lecture hall polytopes

Let sZ1n{\boldsymbol s}\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}^n be a sequence, and let Pn(s)\mathbf{P}_n^{({\boldsymbol s})} denote the corresponding ss-lecture hall polytope. Levelness conjecture. Suppose there exists cZn{\boldsymbol c}\in\mathbb{Z}^n satisfying

cjsj1=cj1sj+gcd(sj1,sj)c_js_{j-1}=c_{j-1}s_j+\gcd(s_{j-1},s_j)

for j>1j>1, with c1=1c_1=1. Then Pn(s)\mathbf{P}_n^{({\boldsymbol s})} is level. This is proposed on the basis of experimental evidence as a potentially tractable sufficient condition for levelness in a large family of lecture hall polytopes; no resolution is supplied in the source.
