Asymptotic independence of descent sets and being an n-cycle
For each , let , and let denote the number of permutations in with descent set , while denotes the number of -cycles with descent set . Asymptotic independence conjecture.
This asserts that, uniformly over all non-empty proper descent sets, having descent set and being an -cycle are asymptotically independent, with the proportion of -cycles tending to as it does among all permutations. The source presents this as a conjectural strengthening of the known asymptotic independence result for alternating permutations.
