Burnham–Rosen–Sidman–Vermeire conjecture on graph curves and Betti tables
Burnham–Rosen–Sidman–Vermeire conjecture on graph curves and Betti tables
Let be a graph with vertices, genus , and girth . Let be the corresponding graph curve, with Betti numbers . Burnham–Rosen–Sidman–Vermeire conjecture. If and , then
is equal to the number of -cycles in . This predicts that a graph's cycle structure is reflected in the Betti table of its graph curve; the paper proves a specific case for trees of cycles, while the stated general form is not resolved here.
