Jack differences in the Muirhead semiring
Jack differences in the Muirhead semiring
Fix , and let and be partitions. Let denote the Muirhead semiring over the nonnegative reals. Muirhead-semiring conjecture. If majorizes , then
and conversely. This strengthens the Jack positivity conjecture by replacing positivity with membership in the Muirhead semiring. The supplied status evidence says that the analogous Muirhead-cone assertion is false, but does not refute this semiring statement.
