The Q-invariant and barred P-invariant generation conjecture for InvRR{\rm Inv}_{R\overline{R}}

Let LSym\operatorname{LSym} and LSym\overline{\operatorname{LSym}} be the loop symmetric-function rings, and set

InvRR=Frac(LSym)Frac(LSym).{\rm Inv}_{R\overline{R}}=\operatorname{Frac}(\operatorname{LSym})\cap\operatorname{Frac}(\overline{\operatorname{LSym}}).

Let the QQ-invariants, barred PP-invariants, and shape invariants SiS_i be the invariants defined in the paper, together with their reduced versions.

Q-invariant and barred P-invariant generation conjecture. The field InvRR{\rm Inv}_{R\overline{R}} is generated by the QQ-invariants, barred PP-invariants, and shape invariants. Every element of LSymLSym\operatorname{LSym}\cap\overline{\operatorname{LSym}} is a polynomial in reduced QQ-invariants, reduced barred PP-invariants, and ratios Si/Si+1S_i/S_{i+1}.

This is the symmetric counterpart to the conjecture for InvRe{\rm Inv}_{R\overline{e}}, exchanging the roles of the two loop-symmetric-function constructions. Its resolution is not supplied in the source.
