Greatest-element conjecture for ribbons with fixed dimensions

About 10 years old · traced to

Consider the partial order on GG-equivalence classes of skew shapes defined by A≤BA\leq B when aA,ν≤aB,νa_{A,\nu}\leq a_{B,\nu} for every partition ν\nu, equivalently when GB−GAG_B-G_A is GG positive. Ribbons with a fixed number of rows and columns form a connected component of this poset. Greatest-element conjecture. In addition to its least element, this set of ribbons has a greatest element. The source gives no proof or resolution of this assertion.
