Abstract: Let $[Z]inext{Hilb}^{d}mathbb{A}^3$ be a zero-dimensional subscheme of the affine three-dimensional complex space of length $d>0$. Okounkov and Pandharipande have conjectured that the dimension of the tangent space of $ext{Hilb}^{d}mathbb{A}^3$ at $[Z]$ and $d$ have have the same parity. The conjecture was proven by Maulik, Nekrasov, Okounkov and Pandharipande for points $[Z]$ defined by monomial ideals and very recently by Ramkumar and Sammartano for homogeneous ideals. In this paper we exhibit a family of zero-dimensional schemes in $ext{Hilb}^{12}mathbb{A}^3$, which disproves the conjecture in the general non-homogeneous case.
