The t-statistic conjecture for gamma-parking functions

From papers

Let γ\gamma and λ\lambda be the parameters used to define the set PFλγ\operatorname{PF}^{\gamma}_{\lambda} of γ\gamma-parking functions, let SS be a subset of the area cells of pp, and let η(p)\eta(p) denote the indexing composition or partition associated with pp. t-statistic conjecture. There exists a statistic tstat\mathsf{tstat} on pairs (p,S)(p,S), with pPFλγp\in\operatorname{PF}^{\gamma}_{\lambda} and SS a subset of the area cells of pp, such that

ΔmγΞeλq1+u=pPFλγu#Sttstat(p,S)eη(p).\left.\Delta_{m_\gamma}\Xi e_{\lambda}\right\rvert_{q\rightarrow 1+u}=\sum_{p\in\operatorname{PF}^{\gamma}_{\lambda}}u^{\#S}t^{\mathsf{tstat}(p,S)}e_{\eta(p)}.

The statistic would refine the known q=1+uq=1+u positivity by supplying the missing tt-weight and a combinatorial expansion through γ\gamma-parking functions. The text states that finding such a statistic remains open.
