Strong Stanley conjecture for Jack Littlewood–Richardson coefficients
Strong Stanley conjecture for Jack Littlewood–Richardson coefficients
Let be the ordinary Littlewood–Richardson coefficient. For a triple of partitions , let denote the set of Stanley diagrams, and let denote evaluation of the corresponding hook-symbol rational function at the associated -hook lengths. Strong Stanley conjecture. If
then there exists a Stanley diagram such that
Moreover, may be chosen with equal numbers of upper hooks in its numerator and denominator, and hence equal numbers of lower hooks. This is Stanley’s motivating conjecture for the diagrammatic formulation; the source does not state a resolution.
