Finite vertical-strip expansion formula for shifted stable Grothendieck polynomials

Let μ\mu be a strict partition. For strict partitions λμ\lambda\supseteq\mu with (λ)=(μ)\ell(\lambda)=\ell(\mu), let SDλ/μ\textsf{SD}_{\lambda/\mu} be the shifted skew diagram. A vertical strip is a subset of Z>0×Z>0\mathbb{Z}_{>0}\times\mathbb{Z}_{>0} containing at most one position in each row, and let c(λ/μ)c(\lambda/\mu) be the number of distinct columns occupied by positions in SDλ/μ\textsf{SD}_{\lambda/\mu}. Vertical-strip expansion conjecture. Then

GQμ(β)=2(μ)λ(1)c(λ/μ)(β/2)λ/μGPλ(β),G\hspace{-0.2mm}Q^{(\beta)}_\mu=2^{\ell(\mu)}\cdot\sum_{\lambda}(-1)^{c(\lambda/\mu)}\cdot(-\beta/2)^{|\lambda/\mu|}\cdot G\hspace{-0.2mm}P^{(\beta)}_\lambda,

where the sum is over the finite set of such strict partitions λ\lambda for which SDλ/μ\textsf{SD}_{\lambda/\mu} is a vertical strip. The source reports that computer calculations suggest this finite formula and gives it as the ensuing conjectural description of the expansion.
