Skeleton conjecture for higher-order Beer indices
Skeleton conjecture for higher-order Beer indices
For a set and an integer , define
where is the set of -element subsets of . Let be the -th Beer index of a set , and let denote -dimensional Lebesgue measure. Skeleton conjecture. For every with and every , there is a such that if satisfies , then there is a simplex with vertex set such that
The conjecture is known when , since the -skeleton is the whole simplex, and in the stated restricted one-dimensional simply connected case. Its validity in general remains open.
