The bounded-chamber conjecture for signed reduced A-discriminants of bivariate 5-nomials
The bounded-chamber conjecture for signed reduced A-discriminants of bivariate 5-nomials
Let be the signed support of a bivariate -nomial and let
be the parametrization map of as defined in the paper. If has two critical points, then the complement of has a bounded connected component.
Bounded-chamber conjecture. Whenever the parametrization map has two critical points, the complement of the signed reduced -discriminant contains a bounded connected component.
The conjecture records the pattern observed in experiments for bivariate -nomials. The paper states that no proof or counterexample is known.
