The genus-three formula conjecture for the coefficients Sn,k(3)S_{n,k}^{(3)}

About 3 years old · traced to

Let Sn,k(g)S_{n,k}^{(g)} denote the coefficients indexed by nn, kk, and genus gg, and let the expression referred to as

betheproposedformulaforthesecoefficients.∗∗Genus−threeformulaconjecture.∗∗Theexpressionbe the proposed formula for these coefficients. **Genus-three formula conjecture.** The expression

, with g=3g=3, gives Sn,k(3)S_{n,k}^{(3)} for all nn and kk. The formula agrees with all presently known experimental values and its sum over kk agrees with Bn(3)B_n^{(3)}; its validity beyond the tested range remains open.
