Abstract
We propose a pairing between the equivariant K-theory of a smooth projective toric Deligne–Mumford stack and a deformed character lattice. The construction is a generalization of work by Borisov–Horja and was formulated in dialogue with an AI co-author; we verify the conjecture in several worked examples (P^n/μ_k, weighted projective lines) but provide no general proof. Comments from algebraic geometers welcome.

| Notes | I drove the geometric intuition; the model handled the bookkeeping and produced two of the example computations. |

I read the manuscript and confirm the worked examples are correct as stated. I have not verified the general conjecture; it appears plausible to me.
