JNS conjecture on eight tau functions for q-Painlevé VI

Let τ(θ;σ,st)\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta};\sigma,s|t) be the tau function defined from the five-dimensional Nekrasov partition function, and let θk,θk\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\uparrow}_k,\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\downarrow}_k be the eight parameter choices indexed by k{0,t,1,}k\in\{0,t,1,\infty\}. JNS conjecture. The eight tau functions

τ=τ(θ;σ,st),τ=τ(θ;σ,st),τ0=τ(θ0;σ+1/2,st),τ0=τ(θ0;σ1/2,st),τ1=τ(θ1;σ,sq1/2t),τ1=τ(θ1;σ,sq1/2t),τt=τ(θt;σ+1/2,sq1/2t),τt=τ(θt;σ1/2,sq1/2t)\begin{aligned} &\tau^{\uparrow}_{\infty}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\uparrow}_{\infty};\sigma,s|t),\qquad \tau^{\downarrow}_{\infty}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\downarrow}_{\infty};\sigma,s|t),\\ &\tau^{\uparrow}_{0}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\uparrow}_{0};\sigma+1/2,s|t),\qquad \tau^{\downarrow}_{0}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\downarrow}_{0};\sigma-1/2,s|t),\\ &\tau^{\downarrow}_{1}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\downarrow}_{1};\sigma,s|q^{-1/2}t),\qquad \tau^{\uparrow}_{1}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\uparrow}_{1};\sigma,s|q^{-1/2}t),\\ &\tau^{\downarrow}_{t}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\downarrow}_{t};\sigma+1/2,s|q^{-1/2}t),\qquad \tau^{\uparrow}_{t}=\tau(\boldsymbol{\theta}^{\uparrow}_{t};\sigma-1/2,s|q^{-1/2}t) \end{aligned}

satisfy the qq-Painlevé VI equation in tau form. This conjecture proposes a two-parameter family of general solutions, up to qq-periodicity, for the second-order qq-Painlevé VI equation; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
