Rational-temperature walk-regularity conjecture
Rational-temperature walk-regularity conjecture
Let be a simple graph, let be its number of vertices, and let denote its walk entropy at temperature . The graph is walk-regular when every vertex is contained in the same number of closed walks of every length. Rational-temperature conjecture. A graph is walk-regular if and only if there exists a rational such that
The preceding result shows that a non-walk-regular graph can attain maximum walk entropy at only finitely many positive temperatures, while the source offers this rational-temperature strengthening as a further conjecture.
