Alilooee–Banerjee–Beyarslan–Hà regularity conjecture for powers of edge ideals

About 9 years old · traced to

Let GG be a graph, let I(G)I(G) be its edge ideal, and let reg(I(G)){\rm reg}(I(G)) denote its Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity. For each integer s≥1s\geq 1, Alilooee–Banerjee–Beyarslan–Hà's conjecture.

reg(I(G)s)≤2s+reg(I(G))−2.{\rm reg}(I(G)^s)\leq 2s+{\rm reg}(I(G))-2.

This is a stronger form of the conjecture that the constant term in the eventual linear function reg(I(G)s){\rm reg}(I(G)^s) is at most reg(I(G))−2{\rm reg}(I(G))-2. It is known for several classes of graphs, including graphs with chordal complement, but remains open for arbitrary graphs.
