Universal factorial Schur P and Q duality at beta equals minus one

Let λ\lambda be a strict partition. Let p^λK(y)\widehat{p}^K_\lambda({\bf y}) and q^λK(y)\widehat{q}^K_\lambda({\bf y}) be the dual universal factorial Schur PP- and QQ-functions, and let gpλ(y)gp_\lambda({\bf y}) and gqλ(y)gq_\lambda({\bf y}) be the tableau-defined functions

gpλ(y)=TTab(λ)yT,gqλ(y)=TTab(λ)yT.gp_\lambda({\bf y})=\sum_{T\in Tab'(\lambda)}{\bf y}^T,\qquad gq_\lambda({\bf y})=\sum_{T\in Tab(\lambda)}{\bf y}^T.

The conjectural combinatorial formula. One has

gpλ(y)=p^λK(y)β=1,gqλ(y)=q^λK(y)β=1.gp_\lambda({\bf y})=\left.\widehat{p}^K_\lambda({\bf y})\right|_{\beta=-1},\qquad gq_\lambda({\bf y})=\left.\widehat{q}^K_\lambda({\bf y})\right|_{\beta=-1}.

The paper states that this is true for the one-row case, namely for every positive integer kk.
