The extended DWBC3 conjecture for 20V configurations and domino tilings

About 7 years old · traced to

Let Pn,kP_{n,k} be the pentagonal domain carrying the extended DWBC3 boundary conditions, and let Tn,k{\mathcal T}_{n,k} be the corresponding extended triangle whose domino tilings are counted by T(Tn,k)T({\mathcal T}_{n,k}). The extended DWBC3 conjecture. For all n,kn,k, the number of configurations of the 20V model with extended DWBC3 boundary conditions on Pn,kP_{n,k} is equal to the number of domino tilings of Tn,k{\mathcal T}_{n,k}.

The claim is based on exact agreement between the listed values of the extended 20V counts pn,kp_{n,k} and the tiling counts T(Tn,k)T({\mathcal T}_{n,k}). The source gives no proof or disproof.
