Odd-order off-diagonally symmetric alternating sign matrix product formula conjecture
Odd-order off-diagonally symmetric alternating sign matrix product formula conjecture
Let an off-diagonally symmetric alternating sign matrix (OSASM) be an alternating sign matrix invariant under reflection in the off-diagonal axis, and let be a nonnegative integer. Odd-order OSASM product formula conjecture. The number of OSASMs is
The formula is conjectured because the relevant Pfaffians have not been evaluated in this case; the paper notes that the equivalent Pfaffian identity remains difficult to prove.
