Bijections between oscillating tableaux and (semi)standard
tableaux via growth diagrams
(29 pages)
Abstract.
We prove that
the number of oscillating tableaux
of length n with at most k columns,
starting at the empty partition and ending at the one-column shape
(1m),
is equal to the number of standard Young tableaux of size n
with m columns of odd length, all columns of length
at most 2k. This refines a conjecture of Burrill,
which it thereby establishes.
We prove as well a "Knuth-type" extension stating a similar
equi-enumeration result between generalised oscillating tableaux
and semistandard tableaux.
