Goulden–Jackson's structural conjecture for higher-genus Hurwitz generating series
Let
where is an integer, and let be the unique formal power series in and satisfying
For the Hurwitz generating series , and for a partition with size and length , Goulden–Jackson's conjecture. For ,
for some rational numbers . Here is the genus- part of the connected Hurwitz generating series, and the lower-genus cases and are already given separately. The conjecture predicts a precise rational form for all remaining genera, with coefficients depending only on and .
