Helme-Guizon–Przytycki–Rong torsion conjecture for chromatic homology
Helme-Guizon–Przytycki–Rong torsion conjecture for chromatic homology
Let be a graph, and let denote its chromatic cohomology over the algebra . A graph has a loop if it contains an edge whose endpoints coincide, and a cycle has order equal to its number of edges.
Helme-Guizon–Przytycki–Rong torsion conjecture. The cohomology contains a torsion part if and only if has no loops and contains a cycle of order at least . In this case, has torsion of order dividing .
This conjecture concerns the existence and order of torsion in chromatic homology over . The supplied text identifies it as a conjecture posed by Helme-Guizon, Przytycki, and Rong, but gives no resolution status.
