Higher-order asymptotic conjecture for parabolic double cosets

At least 14 years old · documented by

Let pnp_n be the number of parabolic double cosets in SnS_n, and let

K=e−(log⁡2)2/24(log⁡2)2.K=\frac{e^{-(\log 2)^2/2}}{4(\log 2)^2}.

Higher-order asymptotic conjecture. There exists a constant c>0c>0 such that

pn(log⁡2)2nn!=K−cn+O(1n2).\frac{p_n(\log 2)^{2n}}{n!}=K-\frac{c}{n}+O\left(\frac{1}{n^2}\right).

This is motivated by numerical data and is presented as a further-direction conjecture; no resolution is given in the supplied text.
