چکیده
We prove the equality of doubly refined enumerations of Alternating Sign Matrices and of Totally Symmetric Self-Complementary Plane Partitions using integral formulae originating from certain solutions of the quantum Knizhnik– Zamolodchikov equation.

On refined enumerations of totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions II
In this paper we settle a weak version of a conjecture (i.e. Conjecture 6) by Mills, Robbins and Rumsey in the paper “Self-complementary totally symmetric plane partitions” J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 42, 277–292. In other words we show that the number of shifted plane partitions invariant under the involution γ is equal to the number of alternating sign matrices invariant under the vertical flip....
متن کاملA Connection between Alternating Sign Matrices and Totally Symmetric Self-Complementary Plane Partitions
We give a lattice path interpretation for totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions. This is a first step in solving the long standing problem of enumerating such plane partitions. Another outstanding problem in enumerative combinatorics is the search for a bijection between alternating sign matrices and totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions. From the lattice path in...
متن کاملThe Poset Perspective on Alternating Sign Matrices
Alternating sign matrices (ASMs) are square matrices with entries 0, 1, or −1 whose rows and columns sum to 1 and whose nonzero entries alternate in sign. We put ASMs into a larger context by studying the order ideals of subposets of a certain poset, proving that they are in bijection with a variety of interesting combinatorial objects, including ASMs, totally symmetric self–complementary plane...
متن کاملRefined Enumerations of Totally Symmetric Self-Complementary Plane Partitions and Constant Term Identities
In this paper we give Pfaffian or determinant expressions, and constant term identities for the conjectures in the paper “Self-complementary totally symmetric plane partitions” (J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 42, 277–292) by Mills, Robbins and Rumsey. We also settle a weak version of Conjecture 6 in the paper, i.e., the number of shifted plane partitions invariant under a certain involution is equal ...
متن کاملOn refined enumerations of totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions I
Abstract In this paper we give Pfaffian expressions and constant term identities for three conjectures (i.e. Conjecture 2, Conjecture 3 and Conjecture 7) by Mills, Robbins and Rumsey in the paper “Self-complementary totally symmetric plane partitions” J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 42, 277–292) concerning the refined enumeration problems of totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions. We al...
