Conjecture on the facets of the network model cone
Conjecture on the facets of the network model cone
Let denote the model matrix for the directed random graph network model with reciprocation, and let be its cone. For a network on nodes, the facets conjecture. has facets: correspond to patterns of zeros leading to a zero row or column margin, and the remaining correspond to patterns of zeros that cause the maximum-likelihood estimate not to exist without inducing zero margins. This conjecture is based on computations in \texttt{polymake} for networks of size up to ; a general proof is not provided in the source.
