Orbit cardinality formulas for primitive square-tiled surfaces in H(2)

Let nn be an odd integer, and consider the two orbits of primitive nn-square-tiled surfaces in H(2){\mathcal{H}}(2), denoted orbit A and orbit B. For a prime pp, write pn(11/p2)\prod_{p\mid n}(1-1/p^2) for the product over prime divisors of nn. Orbit cardinality conjecture. For odd nn, the cardinalities of the two orbits are

316(n1)n2pn(11p2)\frac{3}{16}(n-1)n^2\prod_{p\mid n}\left(1-\frac{1}{p^2}\right)

for orbit A and

316(n3)n2pn(11p2)\frac{3}{16}(n-3)n^2\prod_{p\mid n}\left(1-\frac{1}{p^2}\right)

for orbit B. These formulas refine the known formula for the total number of primitive square-tiled surfaces and agree with the leading term established by the paper's counting theorem for prime nn; their general validity is supported by numerical evidence.
