Nakagawa–Naruse shifted reverse plane partition formulas for connective Schur functions

Let β\beta be a parameter, let β\beta-dependent skew functions gpug\hspace{-0.2mm}p_{ u} and gqug\hspace{-0.2mm}q_{ u} be indexed by strict partitions, and let u u be a strict partition. For strict partitions μλ\mu\subseteq\lambda, let ShRPPQ(λ/μ){\rm ShRPP}_Q(\lambda/\mu) be the set of shifted reverse plane partitions of shape λ/μ\lambda/\mu, and let ShRPPP(λ/μ){\rm ShRPP}_P(\lambda/\mu) be the \subset whose diagonal entries are all primed. For TT in either set, write xwtRPP(T)x^{\operatorname{wt}_{\rm RPP}(T)} for its row-and-column weight and wtRPP(T)|\operatorname{wt}_{\rm RPP}(T)| for the degree of that weight. Nakagawa–Naruse's conjecture. If μλ\mu\subseteq\lambda are strict partitions, then

gpλ/μ=TShRPPP(λ/μ)(β)λ/μwtRPP(T)xwtRPP(T),g\hspace{-0.2mm}p_{\lambda/\mu}=\sum_{T\in {\rm ShRPP}_P(\lambda/\mu)}(-\beta)^{|\lambda/\mu|-|\operatorname{wt}_{\rm RPP}(T)|}x^{\operatorname{wt}_{\rm RPP}(T)},

and

gqλ/μ=TShRPPQ(λ/μ)(β)λ/μwtRPP(T)xwtRPP(T).g\hspace{-0.2mm}q_{\lambda/\mu}=\sum_{T\in {\rm ShRPP}_Q(\lambda/\mu)}(-\beta)^{|\lambda/\mu|-|\operatorname{wt}_{\rm RPP}(T)|}x^{\operatorname{wt}_{\rm RPP}(T)}.

These formulas give conjectural generating functions for the skew connective Schur PP- and QQ-type functions; the source supplies no resolution status for this conjecture.
