Zero-location conjecture for the normalized generating function of vacuum modules

Let L(kΛ0)L(k\Lambda_0) be the level-kk vacuum module, let FL(kΛ0)\mathcal{F}_{L(k\Lambda_0)} be its normalized generating function, and let G(FL(kΛ0),j)G(\mathcal{F}_{L(k\Lambda_0)},j) be the polynomial obtained from the modular-form decomposition

f(τ)=Δt(τ)E4δ(τ)E6ϵ(τ)G(f,j(τ)),f(\tau)=\Delta^t(\tau)E_4^\delta(\tau)E_6^\epsilon(\tau)G(f,j(\tau)),

where

j(τ)=1728E43(τ)E43(τ)E62(τ).j(\tau)=\frac{1728E_4^3(\tau)}{E_4^3(\tau)-E_6^2(\tau)}.

Zero-location conjecture. For every k2i22k\neq 2i^2-2, i2i\geq 2, the zeros of G(FL(kΛ0),j)G(\mathcal{F}_{L(k\Lambda_0)},j) are simple and lie inside the interval [0,1728][0,1728]. This is a numerical conjecture about the zeros of the polynomial associated with the modular form; via the stated parametrization of the fundamental-domain arc by the jj-function, it describes the location of the corresponding zeros of the generating function.
