The E1s63 doubling conjecture for minimally 3-rigid graphs

Let GG be a minimally 3-rigid graph, and let GG' be obtained from GG by a 1-extension of type E1s63. Let c3(G)\mathbf{c}_{3}(G) denote the three-dimensional realization count. The E1s63 doubling conjecture. Then

c3(G)c3(G)=2.\frac{\mathbf{c}_{3}(G')}{\mathbf{c}_{3}(G)}=2.

The conjecture is motivated by experiments in which E1s63 extensions always doubled the number of realizations. The supplied text does not establish the claim for all minimally 3-rigid graphs.
