The rainbow vertex-disconnection Nordhaus–Gaddum conjecture

Let GG and G\overline{G} be nontrivial connected graphs of order n8n\geq 8. Write rvd(G)rvd(G) for the rainbow vertex-disconnection number of GG. Rainbow vertex-disconnection Nordhaus–Gaddum conjecture.

rvd(G)+rvd(G)n.rvd(G)+rvd(\overline{G})\geq n.

This conjecture proposes an improvement of the established lower bound for the sum of the rainbow vertex-disconnection numbers of a graph and its complement. The paper notes that the bound holds when rvd(G)=1rvd(G)=1, but does not establish it for all nontrivial connected graphs of order at least 88.
