The shuffle conjecture expresses a relationship between parking functions,\ndiagonal harmonics, and the Bergeron-Garsia \∇ operator. Recent\nconjectures about a family of modified Hall-Littlewood operators made by\nHaglund, Morse, and Zabrocki sharpen the shuffle conjecture and suggest a\nvariety of combinatorial properties of parking functions. In particular, their\nconjectures combined with previously established commutativity laws of the\nHall-Littlewood operators, suggest the existence of certain bijections relating\nparking functions with different diagonal compositions. In this paper we\nformulate a conjecture which yields an algorithm for the construction of these\nbijections, prove a special case, and give some applications.\n
