Lam–Postnikov–Pylyavskyy alcoved-polytope Schur-order conjecture
Let be partitions, and let denote the corresponding character. Suppose
and that and belong to the minimal alcoved polytope containing and . Write when is Schur positive. Lam–Postnikov–Pylyavskyy conjecture. Under these conditions,
The source attributes this to an unpublished conjecture of Lam, Postnikov, and Pylyavskyy; it also states that the corresponding symmetric-function conjecture implies a linear-progression strong Schur-log-concavity claim. No resolution is given.
