Aliniaeifard–van Willigenburg–Wang conjecture for a generalized family of spiders
Aliniaeifard–van Willigenburg–Wang conjecture for a generalized family of spiders
For positive integers and , let denote the spider with three legs of lengths , , and . A spider is -positive when its chromatic symmetric function is a nonnegative linear combination of elementary symmetric functions.
Aliniaeifard–van Willigenburg–Wang conjecture. The family of spiders
is -positive.
This is the second related conjecture communicated to the authors by Aliniaeifard, van Willigenburg, and Wang. The source gives no resolution.
