The type-preserving duality conjecture for full antichains

Let Φ\Phi be a finite root system of rank nn, with positive roots Φ0\Phi_{\geq 0} ordered by root order. An antichain is a set of pairwise incomparable positive roots. For an antichain A\mathsf{A}, let t(A)t(\mathsf{A}) be the set of Dynkin-diagram edges whose endpoints occur together in the support of some root in A\mathsf{A}. Call A\mathsf{A} of full type when t(A)t(\mathsf{A}) is the complete Dynkin diagram. Type-preserving duality conjecture. There should be a natural bijection between the antichains of cardinality 11 and full type and the antichains of cardinality n1n-1 and full type. This is presented as a special case of Panyushev's proposed duality preserving type; the supplied text notes that the relevant duality had been constructed only for types AA, BB, and CC.
