Abstract: Carnevale and Voll conjectured that j (--1) j $lambda$ 1 j $lambda$ 2 j = 0 when $lambda$ 1 and $lambda$ 2 are two distinct integers. We check the conjecture when either $lambda$ 2 or $lambda$ 1 -- $lambda$ 2 is small. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of their sum when the ratio r := $lambda$ 1 /$lambda$ 2 is fixed and $lambda$ 2 goes to infinity. We find an explicit range r $ge$ 5.8362 on which the conjecture is true. We show that the conjecture is almost surely true for any fixed r. For r close to 1, we give several explicit intervals on which the conjecture is also true.
