Griggs's chain decomposition conjecture for the Boolean algebra
Griggs's chain decomposition conjecture for the Boolean algebra
Let be the Boolean algebra of all subsets of , ordered by inclusion. A chain decomposition of has a type, namely the partition obtained by rearranging its chain sizes in weakly decreasing order. For partitions and of , write when for every . Griggs's conjecture. If a partition of satisfies , where is the partition corresponding to the symmetric chain decomposition of , then has a chain decomposition of type . This conjecture is equivalent to the assertion that the incomparability graph of is nice; the paper presents it as motivation for studying Schur positivity.
