A barred signed Edelman–Greene expansion at opposite alphabets

Let Cn+1C_{n+1} be the hyperoctahedral group, let x\mathbf{x} be an alphabet of variables, and let FωdF_{\omega}^d denote the doubled Stanley symmetric function. Suppose ωCn+1\omega\in C_{n+1} is unknotted and every reduced word for ω\omega contains at most one s0s_0. Let Eˉωλr\bar{E}_{\omega}^{\lambda r} be the number of signed Edelman–Greene tableaux for ω\omega of shape λ\lambda with exactly rr barred entries.

Barred signed Edelman–Greene expansion. Then

Fωd(x,x)=r evenλEˉωλrsλ(x)r oddλEˉωλrsλ(x).F_{\omega}^{d}(\mathbf{x},-\mathbf{x})=\sum_{r\text{ even}}\sum_{\lambda}\bar{E}_{\omega}^{\lambda r}s_{\lambda}(\mathbf{x})-\sum_{r\text{ odd}}\sum_{\lambda}\bar{E}_{\omega}^{\lambda r}s_{\lambda}(\mathbf{x}).

This is the second of three conjectures in the section; the provided text gives no resolution, while the stronger untangled case is stated to be a theorem.
