The symmetric-group supercharacter theory conjecture
The symmetric-group supercharacter theory conjecture
Let be the symmetric group on letters. A supercharacter theory of is a supercharacter theory in the sense used for finite groups.
Symmetric-group supercharacter theory conjecture. For every , the symmetric group has exactly supercharacter theories.
The conjecture is closely related to the proposed classification for alternating groups and is suggested by the computations described in the source. Its assertion for all remains open.
