Depth-seven conjecture for edge rings of finite graphs

Let GG be a finite graph on the vertex set [d]={1,,d}[d]=\{1,\ldots,d\} with d7d\geq 7, and let K[G]K[G] be its edge ring. Depth-seven conjecture.

depthK[G]7.\operatorname{depth} K[G]\geq 7.

The claim arises from computations showing that connected nonbipartite graphs with seven vertices have edge rings of depth at least seven. The preceding discussion presents it as a temptation rather than an established theorem; the supplied status gives no evidence of resolution.
