The Lorentzian conjecture for normalized key polynomials

Let αNn\alpha\in\mathbb{N}^n be a composition, and let κα(x1,,xn)\kappa_\alpha(x_1,\ldots,x_n) be its key polynomial. Key-polynomial conjecture. The normalized polynomial

N(κα(x1,,xn))\mathrm{N}(\kappa_\alpha(x_1,\ldots,x_n))

is Lorentzian for every composition α\alpha. The source reports tests for small compositions; the Lorentzian assertion remains open, although M-convexity of the support is known.
