The diagonal quasi-symmetric Hilbert matrix recurrence conjecture

From papers

Let DQn=Q[x,y]/Jn{\rm DQ}_n={\mathbb Q}[{\bf x},{\bf y}]/\mathcal J_n be the quotient by the ideal generated by diagonally quasi-symmetric polynomials without constant term, and let MnM_n be its Hilbert matrix. Thus MnM_n is an n×nn\times n lower triangular matrix. Hilbert matrix recurrence conjecture. Every diagonal entry is the (n1)(n-1)st Catalan number,

Mn(i,i)=1n(2(n1)n1),M_n(i,i)=\frac{1}{n}{2(n-1)\choose n-1},

and, for i>ji>j, the other nonzero entries satisfy

Mn(i,j)=ii\jjMn1(i,j).M_n(i,j)=\sum_{\substack{i'\geq i\j'\leq j}}M_{n-1}(i',j').

The conjecture extends the known recurrence for the first column and last row, while the complete bigraded Hilbert series of DQn{\rm DQ}_n remains to be established.
