The permutation-basis conjecture for regular semisimple Hessenberg cohomology

Let h:[n][n]h:[n]\to[n] be a Hessenberg function, meaning a nondecreasing function with h(i)ih(i)\geq i for all ii. Let Hess(S,h)\mathcal{H}ess(\mathsf{S},h) be the regular semisimple Hessenberg variety associated with a regular semisimple Sgl(n,C)\mathsf{S}\in\mathfrak{gl}(n,\mathbb{C}), and let the symmetric group SnS_n act on its cohomology H(Hess(S,h))H^*(\mathcal{H}ess(\mathsf{S},h)) via the dot action. Permutation-basis conjecture. There exists a basis of H(Hess(S,h))H^*(\mathcal{H}ess(\mathsf{S},h)) that is permuted by the dot action, such that the stabilizer of each basis element is a reflection subgroup. The conjecture would provide a permutation-basis description of the dot-action representation and, according to the supplied context, would imply the Stanley–Stembridge conjecture. The supplied text gives no resolution status.
