Full rank of the max-min set-composition matrix
Prove that, for each fixed d, the matrix whose rows are indexed by loopless nested matroids on [d] and whose columns are indexed by max-min set compositions of [d], with entries recording whether a set composition is generic for the corresponding matroid, has full rank d!.
References
We conjecture this matrix to have full rank $d!$.
