Symmetry conjecture for generating functions of even and odd 3412-avoiding involutions
Symmetry conjecture for generating functions of even and odd 3412-avoiding involutions
Let denote the involutions under consideration, and let and be the generating functions for the odd and even involutions, respectively.
Symmetry conjecture. For all and all , the generating functions for the even involutions in and for the odd involutions in are symmetric in .
The conjecture combines the separately stated symmetry claims for and . The negative case was verified computationally for with and for with ; the general statement remains open.
