Enumeration conjecture for geometric multi-chains of t-filters

About 7 years old · traced to

For n≥1n\geq 1, let Tn={(i,j)∣1≤i<j≤n}T_n=\{(i,j)\mid 1\leq i<j\leq n\} be the triangular poset with (i,j)⪯(k,l)(i,j)\preceq(k,l) if and only if i≥ki\geq k and j≤lj\leq l. For t∈[n]t\in[n], let Tn,t={(i,j)∈Tn∣j>t}T_{n,t}=\{(i,j)\in T_n\mid j>t\}, and let (Vm,Vm−1,…,V1)(V_m,V_{m-1},\ldots,V_1) be a geometric multi-chain of tt-filters, meaning a nested tuple of filters satisfying the two geometricity conditions defined for the triangular poset.

Enumeration conjecture. The number of geometric multi-chains of tt-filters (Vm,Vm−1,…,V1)(V_m,V_{m-1},\ldots,V_1) is

mt+1mn+1((m+1)n−tn−t).\frac{mt+1}{mn+1}\binom{(m+1)n-t}{n-t}.

This conjectural formula gives a closed enumeration of the geometric multi-chains used in the proposed combinatorial description of the HH-triangle. The supplied text does not state whether the formula has been proved or disproved.
