Log-concavity of elementary coefficients for low-rank abelian Hessenberg graphs, with a counterexample in general

Let $X_{G_h}(\mathbf{x};q)=\sum_{\mu\vdash n}c_\mu(q)e_\mu(\mathbf{x})$ be the chromatic quasisymmetric function of the natural unit interval graph attached to a Hessenberg function $h$. We establish an infinite class, valid in all orders, for which every nonzero polynomial $c_\mu(q)$ has a nonnegative, log-concave coe...
