Generalised Delta square conjecture, valley version

Let m,n,km,n,k be nonnegative integers, let hmh_m and eje_j be the complete homogeneous and elementary symmetric functions, and let Δf\Delta_f be the Delta operator. Let ω\omega be the standard involution, pnp_n the power-sum symmetric function, and LSQ(m,n)k\mathsf{LSQ}(m,n)^{\bullet k} the set of labelled valley-decorated square paths of size m+nm+n with mm zero labels and kk decorations. For π\pi in this set, write dinv(π)\mathsf{dinv}(\pi), area(π)\mathsf{area}(\pi), and xπx^\pi for its associated statistics and monomial weight.

Generalised Delta square conjecture, valley version.

[nk]q[n]qΔhmΔenkω(pn)=πLSQ(m,n)kqdinv(π)tarea(π)xπ.\frac{[n-k]_q}{[n]_q} \Delta_{h_m} \Delta_{e_{n-k}} \omega(p_n) = \sum_{\pi \in \mathsf{LSQ}(m,n)^{\bullet k}} q^{\mathsf{dinv}(\pi)} t^{\mathsf{area}(\pi)} x^\pi.

The paper reports computational evidence through n=6n=6 and notes that this valley version differs from the rise version by replacing the tt-analogue factor with a qq-analogue factor. It remains open.
