The Ferrers-poset LE-symmetry conjecture for specified partitions

From papers

Let FλF_\lambda be the Ferrers poset associated with a partition λ\lambda, and let λt\lambda^t be the conjugate partition; the posets FλF_\lambda and FλtF_{\lambda^t} are isomorphic. A poset is LE-symmetric when its Bender–Knuth group acts as the full symmetric group on its set of linear extensions. The Ferrers-poset LE-symmetry conjecture. The Ferrers posets FλF_\lambda, and therefore FλtF_{\lambda^t}, are LE-symmetric in the following cases: λ=(n,n2)\lambda=(n,n-2) for all nn; λ=(n,3)\lambda=(n,3) for n≢2(mod4)n\not\equiv 2\pmod 4; and λ=(n,2,2)\lambda=(n,2,2) for n≢0(mod4)n\not\equiv 0\pmod 4. These are conjectural families motivated by the contrast between LE-cactus and LE-symmetric behavior; the stated cases remain open.
