Geometric-stratum conjecture for tensegrity fibers
Let be a graph and let be a positive integer. The -stratum is the set of frameworks for which the dimension of the fiber is at least . Such a stratum is geometric when it is a finite union of sets of conditional solutions of systems of geometric conditions, with the points in the systems corresponding to vertices of . Geometric-stratum conjecture. For any graph and integer , the -stratum is geometric. The conjecture proposes that every stratum of the tensegrity configuration space has a finite geometric-incidence description; the paper establishes semialgebraicity of these strata but leaves this stronger description open.
