The bipartite-complement conjecture for extremal edge polytopes
The bipartite-complement conjecture for extremal edge polytopes
Let be a finite simple graph in attaining the maximum number of edges of its edge polytope, so that .
Bipartite-complement conjecture. The complement of is a bipartite graph.
This conjecture proposes a structural description of graphs maximizing the number of edges of an edge polytope. The preceding theorem shows that complete graphs are extremal for , while for some graphs have more edge-polytope edges than the complete graph; determining the exact maximum and an extremal graph remains unsolved for .
