Universal polynomial and positivity conjecture for wall-crossing coefficients

From papers

Let SS be a rational surface, let N,d,rN,d,r be the parameters in the wall-crossing formula, let K2K^2 denote KS2K_S^2, and let Qi(N,d,r,K2)Q_i(N,d,r,K^2) and Pi(N,d,r,K2)P_i(N,d,r,K^2) be the polynomials appearing there. Universal polynomial and positivity conjecture. For every ii, one has

Qi(N,d,r,K2)=Pi(N,d,r,K2)+Ri(N,d,r,K2),Q_i(N,d,r,K^2)=P_i(N,d,r,K^2)+R_i(N,d,r,K^2),

where Ri(N,d,r,K2)R_i(N,d,r,K^2) is a polynomial in N,d,r,K2N,d,r,K^2 of degree i2i-2. When RiR_i is regarded as a polynomial in N,d,r,K2N,-d,-r,K^2, all its coefficients are positive; the same is true of QiQ_i. This conjecture is a stronger form of the wall-crossing-shape conjecture mentioned immediately beforehand and is supported by the computations in the paper. Its general validity is not resolved in the supplied text.
