Conjecture on fixed-descent subgraphs of the skeleton of a crystal

Let λ\lambda be a partition, and let Skeleton(λ)Skeleton(\lambda) be the skeleton whose vertices are standard tableaux of shape λ\lambda. For each positive integer ss, let HsH_s be the induced subgraph whose vertices are the standard tableaux with descent compositions having ss parts. The fixed-descent skeleton conjecture. Each HsH_s is either a disjoint union of singleton vertices, a disjoint union of chains, or a disjoint union of even cycles, with or without two extra attached vertices giving the sources and sinks. Multiple edges occur only between induced subgraphs associated to different descent-composition lengths. This predicts a restricted and structured form for the parts of the skeleton obtained by fixing the number of descents.
