Numerical inequalities for self-conjugate 9-core partitions

Let sc9(n)sc_9(n) denote the number of self-conjugate 99-core partitions of nn, and let nn be a non-negative integer. Numerical inequalities for self-conjugate 9-core partitions. The following inequalities are conjectured:

  1. If n49n\geq 49, then sc9(4n)>3sc9(n)sc_9(4n)>3\,sc_9(n).
  2. If n1n\geq 1, then sc9(4n+1)>1.9sc9(n)sc_9(4n+1)>1.9\,sc_9(n).
  3. If n17n\geq 17, then sc9(4n+3)>1.9sc9(n)sc_9(4n+3)>1.9\,sc_9(n).
  4. If n1n\geq 1, then sc9(4n+4)>2.6sc9(n)sc_9(4n+4)>2.6\,sc_9(n). These claims are based on experimental data, and the source gives no proof.
