The serpent nest conjecture for hollow quadrangulations
The serpent nest conjecture for hollow quadrangulations
Let be a hollow quadrangulation. A serpent nest of is a potentially empty set of pairwise compatible serpents, and a maximal -accordion dissection is a dissection maximal among those whose diagonals are compatible with the reference quadrangulation .
Serpent nest conjecture. For any hollow quadrangulation , there is a bijection between the serpent nests of and the maximal -accordion dissections.
This conjecture generalizes the bijection between nonnesting partitions and triangulations of convex polygons from associahedral combinatorics to Stokes, or accordion, complexes. It was initially stated by F. Chapoton for reference hollow quadrangulations and is presented here as the specialization at of his more general conjecture.
