Involution pipe-dream decomposition conjecture for symmetric initial ideals
Let be a positive integer, let be the set of involutions indexing symmetric partial permutation matrices, and let be the associated ideal for . For an involution pipe dream for , let be its crossing multiplicity and define
Involution pipe-dream conjecture. If , then
where ranges over all involution pipe dreams for all with in Bruhat order. This would provide a primary decomposition of the symmetric initial ideals analogous to known decompositions for ordinary and skew-symmetric matrix Schubert varieties. The statement is supported by computations, but its general validity remains open.
