Bergeron–Garsia–Haiman–Tesler Conjecture II on nabla and modified Hall–Littlewood polynomials
Let and be partitions, let be the modified Hall–Littlewood polynomial obtained by specializing the modified Macdonald polynomial at , and let denote the nabla operator. Write for the number of parts of and take the scalar product with the Schur function . Bergeron–Garsia–Haiman–Tesler's Conjecture II. For any partitions and ,
This asserts Schur positivity for the specified signed nabla transform. The conjecture was posed by Bergeron, Garsia, Haiman, and Tesler; the supplied source does not establish whether it has been resolved.
