Integrality of HLV kernels
  We prove that the coefficients of the generating function of Hausel, Letellier, Villegas, and its recent generalization by Carlsson and Villegas, which according to various conjectures should compute mixed Hodge numbers of character varieties and moduli spaces of Higgs bundles of curves of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures, are polynomials in $q$ and $t$ with integer coefficients for any $g,n\geq 0$.
