The XZ conjecture for SU(N)SU(N)

Let N2N\geq 2, and let f:[0,1]N(N1)2×TN(N+1)21Cf:[0,1]^{\frac{N(N-1)}{2}}\times \mathbb{T}^{\frac{N(N+1)}{2}-1}\to\mathbb{C} be an admissible function, meaning that it has a finite expansion in the torus variables with coefficients polynomial in the interval variables and their square roots. Its spectrum Sp(f)\operatorname{Sp}(f) is the set of torus multi-indices occurring with nonzero coefficient. Let J~SU(N)\tilde{J}_{SU(N)} be the recursively defined Jacobian factor for the SU(N)SU(N) decomposition. The XZ conjecture for SU(N)SU(N). If

for all PNP\in\mathbb{N}, then 0\vec{0} does not lie in the convex hull of Sp(f)\operatorname{Sp}(f). This is the key remaining implication used to deduce the Mathieu conjecture for SU(N)SU(N); the paper proves the Mathieu conjecture assuming this statement.
