Chavli–Pfeiffer's integral basis conjecture for Hecke algebra centers

Let WW be a finite group with Hecke algebra H(W)\mathscr{H}(W) over a ring RR, and let {bwwW}\{\mathbf{b}_w\mid w\in W\} be an RR-basis. After extending scalars to the field FF, let {bwwW}\{\mathbf{b}_w^\vee\mid w\in W\} be the dual basis with respect to the symmetrizing form, and define coefficients gw,Cg_{w,C} by

bwCCl(W)gw,CbwC(mod[FRH(W),FRH(W)]).\mathbf{b}_w^\vee\equiv\sum_{C\in\operatorname{Cl}(W)}g_{w,C}\mathbf{b}_{w_C}^\vee\pmod{[F\otimes_R\mathscr{H}(W),F\otimes_R\mathscr{H}(W)]}.

Set

zC=wWgw,Cbw.z_C=\sum_{w\in W}g_{w,C}\mathbf{b}_w.

Here wCw_C is a representative of the conjugacy class CC.

Chavli–Pfeiffer's integral basis conjecture. There exist an RR-basis {bwwW}\{\mathbf{b}_w\mid w\in W\} of H(W)\mathscr{H}(W) and conjugacy-class representatives {wCCCl(W)}\{w_C\mid C\in\operatorname{Cl}(W)\} such that gw,CRg_{w,C}\in R for every pair (w,C)(w,C), and consequently {zCCCl(W)}\{z_C\mid C\in\operatorname{Cl}(W)\} is an RR-basis of Z(H(W))Z(\mathscr{H}(W)).

Over the fraction field, the analogous elements form a basis of the center by the cited Chavli–Pfeiffer result. The conjecture asks for choices making this basis integral over RR; the source does not state a general resolution.
