The $qt$-catalan numbers, which encode the area and bounce statistic of Dyck paths.

These encode a bigraded Frobenius/Hilbert series in diadonal harmonics, and with this interpretation, there is an obvious qt-symmetry. However, it is still an open problem to find a combinatorial proof of the symmetry, by exhibiting a bijection that interchanges the area and bounce statistics.
