Nonpolynomiality conjecture for semi-magic hypercube counting functions

About 24 years old · traced to

Let HndH_n^d denote the counting function for semi-magic dd-dimensional hypercubes of order nn. Nonpolynomiality conjecture. The function HndH_n^d is not a polynomial when n,d≥3n,d\geq 3. The claim is posed as a challenge to the reader and is motivated by the cited result that H33H_3^3 is a quasi-polynomial but not a polynomial; its general validity remains open.
