The factorization conjecture for Jack Littlewood–Richardson coefficients

Let RR be a window and let κ\kappa be a factorization region with κμRλR\kappa\subseteq\mu_R\subset\lambda_R, such that λR/κ\lambda_R/\kappa has multiple components {λi}\{\lambda_i\} and μR/κ\mu_R/\kappa has components {μj}\{\mu_j\}. Let Hκ=Hκ,κ\mathcal H_\kappa=\mathcal H_{\kappa,\emptyset}^{\kappa} be the set of factorization channels, let GΦ,RκG_{\Phi,R}^{\kappa} be the evaluated channel factor, and let HΦ(v)H_\Phi(\vec v) be a channel solution depending on local parameters v\vec v.

Factorization conjecture. The Jack Littlewood–Richardson coefficient has an expansion

gμνλ=FRΦHκGΦ,RκHΦ(v).g_{\mu\nu}^{\lambda}=F_R\sum_{\Phi\in\mathcal H_\kappa}G_{\Phi,R}^{\kappa}H_\Phi(\vec v).

The channel set is independent of RR, while the channel solutions are local to the component shapes and νR\nu_R. This conjecture is presented as a window-compatible generalization of a basic factorization theorem and is not proved in the source.
