Abstract
In this paper we give Pfaffian or determinant expressions, and constant term identities for the conjectures in the paper "Self-complementary totally symmetric plane partitions" (J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 42, 277-292) by Mills, Robbins and Rumsey. We also settle a weak version of Conjecture 6 in the paper, i.e., the number of shifted plane partitions invariant under a certain involution is equal to the number of alternating sign matrices invariant under the vertical flip.
