Determinant evaluation conjecture for the matrix T_{n,m}(x)

About 3 years old · traced to

Let Tn,m(x)T_{n,m}(x) be the n×nn\times n matrix

Tn,m(x):=[(x+mj−i+m)−(x+mm−i−j−1)]i,j=0n−1.T_{n,m}(x):=\left[\binom{x+m}{j-i+m}-\binom{x+m}{m-i-j-1}\right]_{i,j=0}^{n-1}.

Determinant evaluation conjecture. The determinant satisfies

det⁡Tn,m(x)=∏i=1n∏j=1m(x+i−j)(x+2i+j−2)(x+2i−j)(i+j−1).\det T_{n,m}(x)=\prod_{i=1}^n\prod_{j=1}^m\frac{(x+i-j)(x+2i+j-2)}{(x+2i-j)(i+j-1)}.

This evaluation is a conjectured closed form for a parameterized determinant arising from a MathOverflow question about a related binomial determinant. The supplied text gives no resolution status.
