Real eigenvectors of regular simplex tensors
Real eigenvectors of regular simplex tensors
Let be a regular simplex tensor generated by a regular simplex frame. An eigenvector is a nonzero vector satisfying
for some scalar , with eigenvectors considered up to scaling. The real-eigenvector conjecture. All eigenvectors of a regular simplex tensor are complex, except for the vectors in the frame and, when is even, the vectors on the boundary of the regions of convergence. The conjecture concerns the complete eigenvector lists obtained from the polynomial eigenvector equations; the source presents it as suggested by the computed tables and does not report a proof or resolution.
