The plus-symmetric alternating sign matrix factorization conjecture
The plus-symmetric alternating sign matrix factorization conjecture
Let be the generating function for alternating sign matrices invariant under flips in the vertical and horizontal axes, with the weight defined in the source. Such matrices have odd size. Let and be the triangular-array generating functions defined in the source. Plus-symmetric factorization conjecture. For , it is conjectured that
and
The source states that these formulas have been verified only for small , so their general validity remains open.
