Nonnegativity conjecture for Schubert polynomials in Dunkl elements

At least 28 years old · documented by

Let G~n0\widetilde{\cal G}_n^0 be the quotient of G~n\widetilde{\cal G}_n by the relations [ij]2=0[ij]^2=0. Let θ~1,…,θ~n\widetilde\theta_1,\ldots,\widetilde\theta_n be the Dunkl elements, and let G~n+\widetilde{\cal G}_n^+ be the cone of all nonnegative integer linear combinations of monomials in the generators xix_i, 1≤i≤n1\leq i\leq n, and [ij][ij], 1≤i<j≤n1\leq i<j\leq n, of G~n0\widetilde{\cal G}_n^0. Nonnegativity conjecture. For every w∈Snw\in S_n, the Schubert polynomial Sw\mathop{\rm S}_w evaluated at θ~1,…,θ~n\widetilde\theta_1,\ldots,\widetilde\theta_n belongs to G~n+\widetilde{\cal G}_n^+.

This is attributed in the source to [FK], Conjecture 8.1, and concerns positivity of Schubert-polynomial evaluations in the noncommutative Dunkl-element setting. The source gives no resolution.
