Chan and Mao's monotonicity conjecture for overpartition ranks
Chan and Mao's monotonicity conjecture for overpartition ranks
Let denote the number of overpartitions of with -rank , and let denote the number of overpartitions of with -rank . Chan and Mao's conjecture. For with , one has
For and , one has
These inequalities assert monotonicity in the size parameter for the two overpartition rank distributions, with the stated exception and restriction for the -rank inequality. The conjecture was proposed by Chan and Mao in 2014; its resolution status is not established by the supplied source context.
