Parity bias conjecture for missing integers in partitions
Parity bias conjecture for missing integers in partitions
Let denote the number of partitions of with missing integers. Define
Thus, and count partitions of with an even and odd number of missing integers, respectively. Parity bias conjecture. For ,
This conjectures that, beyond the observed threshold, partitions with an even number of missing integers outnumber those with an odd number. The source presents this as an analogue of a known parity bias for partitions and gives no proof or resolution.
