The combinatorial Sylvester four-point conjecture
The combinatorial Sylvester four-point conjecture
Fix . Let be a uniformly random reduced expression for the long word in , and choose uniformly at random a -subset of . The induced reduced expression for the long word in is compared with
Combinatorial Sylvester four-point conjecture. For every , the probability that is .
This is a combinatorial analogue of Sylvester's four-point problem, obtained from the Goodman–Pollack classification of point configurations. A more general result of O. Angel and A. E. Holroyd is stated to imply this conjecture.
