Nonnegative order polynomial coefficients for cylindric skew shapes

About 1 year old · traced to

Let Pλ/μ/dP_{\lambda/\mu/d} be the cell poset associated with a cylindric skew shape λ/μ\lambda/\mu of period parameter dd, and let Ω(Pλ/μ/d;t)\Omega(P_{\lambda/\mu/d};t) be its order polynomial. Cylindric positivity conjecture.

∣λ/μ∣!⋅Ω(Pλ/μ/d;t)∈Z≥0[t].|\lambda/\mu|!\cdot\Omega(P_{\lambda/\mu/d};t)\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq0}[t].

The claim is motivated by calculations using the cylindric plane-partition formula; no general proof is given in the source.
