Okounkov's log-concavity conjecture for Littlewood–Richardson coefficients
Okounkov's log-concavity conjecture for Littlewood–Richardson coefficients
Let denote the Littlewood–Richardson coefficient associated to partitions , , and . For a partition and a positive integer , let denote the partition obtained by multiplying every part of by . Okounkov's log-concavity conjecture. Let be three partitions. Then
for every integer . This is a proposed log-concavity property for Littlewood–Richardson coefficients; the supplied source does not establish its general validity, and the paper's title indicates that counterexamples are constructed.
