Weight-preserving bijections between integer partitions and a class of alternating sign trapezoids

Combinatorics 2022-09-12 v2

Abstract

We construct weight-preserving bijections between column strict shifted plane partitions with one row and alternating sign trapezoids with exactly one column in the left half that sums to 11. Amongst other things, they relate the number of 1-1s in the alternating sign trapezoids to certain elements in the column strict shifted plane partitions that generalise the notion of special parts in descending plane partitions. The advantage of these bijections is that they include configurations with 1-1s, which is a feature that many of the bijections in the realm of alternating sign arrays lack.
