Centrality conjecture for shifted determinants

From papers

Let λ\lambda be a dominant weight, let VλV_\lambda be the corresponding representation space, and let Ωλ(u)=Ωλ+uid\Omega_\lambda(u)=\Omega_\lambda+u\otimes \operatorname{id}. Using a basis of VλV_\lambda, form the shifted determinant Dλ(u)D_\lambda(u) as the column-determinant of the matrix Ωλ(u)L\Omega_\lambda(u)-L, where L=diag(m,m1,,0)L=\operatorname{diag}(m,m-1,\ldots,0). Shifted-determinant centrality conjecture. For any dominant weight λ\lambda, there exists a basis of VλV_\lambda such that the coefficients of Dλ(u)D_\lambda(u) belong to the center Z(gln(C))Z(\mathfrak{gl}_n(\mathbb{C})). The paper introduces shifted determinants as a second family of central-polynomial candidates; no resolution of this assertion is supplied in the given text.
