Equidistribution conjecture for ascents and descents of perfect matchings
Equidistribution conjecture for ascents and descents of perfect matchings
Let denote the set of perfect matchings on , and let and be the ascent and descent sets of a matching , defined by the relative order of and in the matching order. For , write
Equidistribution conjecture. For all ,
This asserts that the ascent and descent set statistics on perfect matchings are equidistributed. The equality has been verified experimentally for ; the stronger question of Schur-positivity with respect to remains unresolved.
