Ulam–Kelly reconstruction conjecture for graph homomorphism counts
Ulam–Kelly reconstruction conjecture for graph homomorphism counts
Let denote the number of graph homomorphisms from to , and let be the family of all graphs. For a family of graphs , say that is reconstructible if, for every graph with at least three vertices, the vector of homomorphism counts is uniquely determined by the vectors for every vertex of . Ulam–Kelly reconstruction conjecture. is reconstructible. This is the homomorphism-count formulation of the Ulam–Kelly graph reconstruction conjecture, asserting that a graph with at least three vertices is determined up to isomorphism by the collection of its vertex-deleted subgraphs. The source presents this formulation as a motivation and question; no resolution is given here.
