Sturmfels–Sullivant degree-bound conjecture for group-based models

About 14 years old · traced to

Let GG be a group and TT a tree. The group-based model associated to GG and TT has a defining ideal of phylogenetic invariants.

Sturmfels–Sullivant's group-based degree-bound conjecture. For any group GG, the ideal of the group-based model is generated in degree at most ∣G∣|G| for any tree TT.

This generalizes the 3-Kimura degree bound, replacing the bound 44 by the order of the group. The supplied source presents it as a generalization due to Sturmfels and Sullivant, with no resolution evidence provided here.
