Symmetry conjecture for vectors working with the all-ones-complement vector
Symmetry conjecture for vectors working with the all-ones-complement vector
Let be odd and not divisible by . Let , and let vectors work together when they satisfy the paper's cyclic covering condition. A vector is symmetric when it has the form , equivalently whenever .
Symmetry conjecture. If and work together, then is symmetric.
The conjecture is motivated by computer experiments and would imply the paper's main theorem when combined with the stated lemma excluding symmetric vectors from independent working triples. The authors explicitly say that they were unable to prove it.
