Abstract
In 2012 P. Oblak formulated a conjecture concerning the cardinality of Qâ1(Q) when Q has two parts, and proved some special cases. R. Zhao refined this to posit that the partitions in Qâ1(Q) for Q=(u,uâr) with u>r>1 could be arranged in an (râ1)Ã(uâr) table T(Q) where the entry in the k-th row and â-th column has k+â parts. We prove this Table Theorem, and then generalize the statement to propose a Box Conjecture for the set of partitions Qâ1(Q) for an arbitrary partition Q whose parts differ pairwise by at least two.
