Cyclic c-equivalence conjecture for centrally symmetric convex sets

Let Γ[k1]×[nk1]\Gamma\subset[k-1]\times[n-k-1] be centrally symmetric and convex. For fΘk,nf\in\Theta_{k,n}, let Γ(f)\Gamma'(f) denote the associated centrally symmetric convex set, and let c-equivalence be the equivalence relation on such ff. Let σ\sigma be the cyclic-shift map.

Cyclic c-equivalence conjecture. The set

{fΘk,nΓ(f)=Γ}\{f\in\Theta_{k,n}\mid \Gamma'(f)=\Gamma\}

is a union of gcd(k,n)\gcd(k,n) c-equivalence classes. These classes are cyclically permuted by σ\sigma.

The conjecture is intended to show that the objects CfC_f, R~f(q)\widetilde R_f(q), P(Πf;q,t)\mathcal{P}(\Pi^\circ_f;q,t), and β^f\hat\beta_f depend only on Γ(f)\Gamma'(f). The source reports partial results and experimental evidence, but no general resolution.
