The genomic-tableaux upper-bound conjecture for Lagrangian Grassmannian constants

Let Y=OG(n,2n+1)Y={\rm OG}(n,2n+1) and Z=LG(n,2n)Z={\rm LG}(n,2n), with structure constants bλ,μνb_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu} and cλ,μνc_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu}, respectively, indexed by strict partitions λ\lambda, μ\mu, and ν\nu. The genomic-tableaux upper-bound conjecture. For any strict partitions λ\lambda, μ\mu, and ν\nu,

bλ,μνcλ,μν.|b_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu}|\leq |c_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu}|.

This extends the known cohomological relationship cλ,μν=2(λ)+(μ)(ν)bλ,μνc_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu}=2^{\ell(\lambda)+\ell(\mu)-\ell(\nu)}b_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu}, where (π)\ell(\pi) is the number of nonzero parts of π\pi. It holds in the cohomological case, has been verified computationally for n6n\leq 6, and is known when μ\mu has a single part; the general conjecture remains open.
