Linear Beer-index bound for p-componentwise simply Δ-connected sets

About 12 years old · traced to

Call a set S⊆R2S\subseteq\mathbb{R}^2 p-componentwise simply Δ\Delta-connected if, for every triangle TT with ∂T⊆S\partial T\subseteq S, one has T⊆ST\subseteq S. Assume that b⁡(S)\operatorname{b}(S) is defined. The linear-bound conjecture. There is an absolute constant α>0\alpha>0 such that

b⁡(S)≤αc⁡(S).\operatorname{b}(S)\leq\alpha\operatorname{c}(S).

This would extend the linear upper bound proved in the paper for p-componentwise simply connected planar sets to the weaker Δ\Delta-connectedness assumption.
