Sign-reversing involution conjecture for plethysm coefficients
Sign-reversing involution conjecture for plethysm coefficients
Let , , and be partitions, let , and set
where . Let denote the relevant set of semistandard tableaux, and let be the sign of .
Sign-reversing cancellation conjecture. There are a subset and a bijective map
such that, if , then , where
Such a sign-reversing pairing would cancel all terms outside in the alternating formula and would provide a combinatorial interpretation of the plethysm coefficient. The supplied text presents this as an expected conjecture and gives no evidence of a resolution.
