The weighted derivative-substitution conjecture

From papers

Let α1,,αe\alpha_1,\dots,\alpha_e be positive and let nn be a positive integer. Define a linear map on monomials by

xIy1t1yetexI(α1t1++αete)n.\mathbf{x}^{\mathbf{I}}y_1^{t_1}\cdots y_e^{t_e}\longmapsto \mathbf{x}^{\mathbf{I}}(\alpha_1t_1+\cdots+\alpha_et_e)^n.

The weighted derivative-substitution conjecture. This mapping determines a map

PdposPd+epos.\mathbf{P}^{\mathrm{pos}}_d\longrightarrow\mathbf{P}^{\mathrm{pos}}_{d+e}.

The source introduces this conjecture as arising naturally from the preceding composition arguments; its general validity is not established there.
