The split-permutation conjecture for largest MVP fibre size

About 3 years old · traced to

For n≥1n\geq 1, let OMVPn\mathcal{O}_{\mathrm{MVP}_{n}} denote the MVP outcome map on permutations of size nn, and let split2,n−2:=(n−1)n(n−2)(n−3)⋯21\mathrm{split}^{2,n-2}:=(n-1)n(n-2)(n-3)\cdots21 for n≥3n\geq3. The MVP split-permutation conjecture. For n≥6n\geq6, the permutation with the largest MVP fibre size is the split permutation split2,n−2\mathrm{split}^{2,n-2}. Numerical evidence supports the claim for n=7,8,9,10,11n=7,8,9,10,11, although the conjecture is not established in the supplied text.
