Uniform Markov-constant bound for square-torus disk packings
Uniform Markov-constant bound for square-torus disk packings
Let , let be the density of a packing of equal disks in a square torus, and define its Markov constant by
Square-torus Markov-bound conjecture. Every such packing satisfies . Equivalently,
The conjecture would give a uniform upper bound on the Markov constant and hence a uniform lower bound on the density gap.
