Hall–Littlewood positivity conjecture for orbit harmonics

Let ZCnZ\subset\mathbb{C}^n be any finite SnS_n-stable set such that C[x1,,xn]/grI(Z)\mathbb{C}[x_1,\dots,x_n]/\operatorname{gr}\mathbf{I}(Z) is a graded SnS_n-module, where I(Z)\mathbf{I}(Z) is the vanishing ideal of ZZ. Let grFrob(;q)\operatorname{grFrob}(-;q) denote the graded Frobenius image, and let {H~λ(x;q)}\{\widetilde{H}_\lambda(\mathbf{x};q)\} be the Hall–Littlewood basis. Hall–Littlewood positivity conjecture. The expansion of

grFrob(C[x1,,xn]/grI(Z);q)\operatorname{grFrob}(\mathbb{C}[x_1,\dots,x_n]/\operatorname{gr}\mathbf{I}(Z);q)

in the Hall–Littlewood basis has coefficients in Z0[q]\mathbb{Z}_{\geq0}[q]. This conjecture predicts positivity for graded orbit-harmonics modules, extending the examples discussed in the source. Its resolution status is not specified.
