Equivariant positivity conjecture for CSM classes

From papers

Let G/PG/P be a partial flag manifold, let X(wWP)G/PX(wW_P)^\circ \subseteq G/P be a Schubert cell, and write its equivariant CSM class in the Schubert basis as

cSMT(X(wWP))=vwcv,w(α)[X(vWP)]THT(G/P).{c^{{T}}_{\operatorname{SM}}}(X(wW_P)^\circ) = \sum_{v \le w} c_{v,w}(\alpha) [X(vW_P)]_T \quad \in H_*^T(G/P).

Equivariant positivity conjecture. The coefficient cv;w(α)c_{v;w}(\alpha) is a polynomial in the positive roots α\alpha with non-negative coefficients. Numerical evidence supports this conjecture for equivariant CSM classes in arbitrary partial flag manifolds; the corresponding non-equivariant positivity statement has been proved.
