Sergel's bi-brick-permutation C-expansion conjecture
Let be a partition, and let range over bi-brick permutations. Associate to each a partition statistic , a composition statistic , and a nonnegative integer statistic . Let denote the creation-operator symmetric function indexed by the composition . Sergel's conjecture. There is a nonnegative integer such that
where and are certain statistics of the bi-brick permutation . If true, this would provide a positive -expansion and support the corresponding Schur-positivity conjecture; the supplied text gives no resolution.
