Hall–Littlewood positivity for q-divided symmetrized Schubert polynomials

Let cmathfrakSwcincoperatornamePolncmathfrak{S}_{w}cin coperatorname{Pol}_n be a Schubert polynomial, and let clanglecmathfrakSwcranglenqclangle cmathfrak{S}_{w}crangle_n^q denote its qq-divided symmetrization. For a partition clambda=(clambda1cgeqcgeqclambdan)clambda=(clambda_1cgeq \cdots cgeq clambda_n), let Pclambda(x1,,xn;q1)P_{clambda}(x_1,\cdots,x_n;q^{-1}) be the Hall–Littlewood PP-polynomial with parameter q1q^{-1}. Hall–Littlewood expansion conjecture. For every Schubert polynomial cmathfrakSwcincoperatornamePolncmathfrak{S}_{w}cin coperatorname{Pol}_n, there are Laurent polynomials bclambda,w(q)b_{clambda,w}(q) with nonnegative integer coefficients such that

clanglecmathfrakSwcranglenq=csumclambda=(clambda1cgeqcgeqclambdan)bclambda,w(q)Pclambda(x1,,xn;q1).clangle cmathfrak{S}_{w}crangle_n^q=csum_{clambda=(clambda_1cgeq \cdots cgeq clambda_n)}b_{clambda,w}(q)P_{clambda}(x_1,\cdots,x_n;q^{-1}).

This generalizes the earlier Hall–Littlewood positivity prediction and was verified in the source for all permutations up to S8S_8; the general case remains open.
