Cassaigne et al.'s sign-change conjecture for the Liouville function

From papers

Let f(x)Z[x]f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]. Suppose that there are no integer bb and g(x)Z[x]g(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x] such that

f(x)=b(g(x))2.f(x)=b(g(x))^2.

Cassaigne et al.'s conjecture. The values λ(f(n))\lambda(f(n)) change sign infinitely often.

This conjecture concerns sign changes of the Liouville function along polynomial sequences. The paper's abstract states that the special case f(n)=n2+df(n)=n^2+d, for every non-zero integer dd, is proved, while the general conjecture remains open.
