The conjecture of -independent spectrum for metric graphs
Let be a metric graph with edges and edge-length vector . Write the non-zero square-root eigenvalues in increasing order as
-independent spectrum conjecture. For every graph , possibly except for some pathological cases, there is a generic set such that, for every , the spectrum is linearly independent over . Equivalently, for every and every ,
Kurasov and Sarnak established that the spectrum has infinite dimension over when the edge lengths are -independent; the conjecture asks for full linear independence for generic edge lengths. The source presents this as future work and gives no resolution.
