Abstract
We conjecture a formula for the rational -Catalan polynomial that is symmetric in and by definition. The conjecture posits that can be written in terms of symmetric monomial strings indexed by maximal Dyck paths. We show that for any finite , giving a combinatorial proof of our conjecture on the infinite set of functions is equivalent to a finite counting problem.
