New conjectures are proposed on the numbers of FPL configurations pertaining to certain types of link patterns. Making use of the Razumov and Stroganov Ansatz, these conjectures are based on the analysis of the ground state of the…
Triangular fully packed loop configurations (TFPLs) came up in the study of fully packed loop configurations on a square (FPLs) corresponding to link patterns with a large number of nested arches. To a TFPL is assigned a triple $(u,v;w)$ of…
We are interested in the enumeration of Fully Packed Loop configurations on a grid with a given noncrossing matching. By the recently proved Razumov--Stroganov conjecture, these quantities also appear as groundstate components in the…
We describe a new conjecture involving Fully Packed Loop counting which relates recent observations of Thapper to formulae in the Temperley--Lieb model of loops, and how it implies the Razumov--Stroganov conjecture.

This article proves a conjecture by Zuber about the enumeration of fully packed loops (FPLs). The conjecture states that the number of FPLs whose link pattern consists of two noncrossing matchings which are separated by $m$ nested arches is…
Recently it has been conjectured that the ground-state of a Markovian Hamiltonian, with one boundary operator, acting in a link pattern space is related to vertically and horizontally symmetric alternating-sign matrices (equivalently…
The problem of counting the number of Fully Packed Loop (FPL) configurations with four sets of a,b,c,d nested arches is addressed. It is shown that it may be expressed as the problem of enumeration of tilings of a domain of the triangular…
We present new conjectures on the distribution of link patterns for fully-packed loop (FPL) configurations that are invariant, or almost invariant, under a quarter turn rotation, extending previous conjectures of Razumov and Stroganov and…
We introduce and prove a one-parameter refinement of the Razumov-Stroganov correspondence. This is achieved for fully-packed loop configurations (FPL) on domains which generalize the square domain, and which are endowed with the gyration…
In this article, we are interested in the enumeration of Fully Packed Loops configurations on a grid with a given noncrossing matching. These quantities also appear as the groundstate components of the Completely Packed Loops model as…
The fully packed loop (FPL) model is a statistical model related to the integrable $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{sl}}_3)$ vertex model. In this paper we study the continuum limit of the FPL. With the appropriate weight of non-contractible loops, we…
We show that the number of fully packed loop configurations corresponding to a matching with $m$ nested arches is polynomial in $m$ if $m$ is large enough, thus essentially proving two conjectures by Zuber [Electronic J. Combin. 11 (2004),…
In this work, we put to light a formula that relies the number of fully packed loop configurations (FPLs) associated to a given coupling pi to the number of half-turn symmetric FPLs (HTFPLs) of even size whose coupling is a punctured…
It has recently been observed empirically that the number of FPL configurations with 3 sets of a, b and c nested arches equals the number of plane partitions in a box of size a x b x c. In this note, this result is proved by constructing…
This work as an extension of our recent paper where we have found a numerical evidence for the fact that the numbers of the states of the fully packed loop (FPL) model with fixed link-patterns coincide with the components of the ground…
