Monotonicity conjecture for plethysm coefficients with a quadratic Schur function
Let , , and be partitions, with and arbitrary. Write for the partition obtained by adjoining a part to , and similarly write for the corresponding partition operation. For partitions and , let denote the coefficient of in the plethysm . Monotonicity conjecture. For arbitrary partitions and , one has
This proposed monotonicity property concerns plethysm coefficients and is presented as a new property motivated by known monotonicity phenomena in plethysm. Its status is not established in the supplied text.
