Finite four-point obstruction conjecture for labeled star graph ultrametric spaces
Finite four-point obstruction conjecture for labeled star graph ultrametric spaces
Let be a finite ultrametric space. The space is a US-space when it belongs to the class of ultrametric spaces generated by labeled star graphs. A four-point subspace is weakly similar to another metric space when there is a similarity between them, allowing a positive rescaling of the distance. Finite four-point obstruction conjecture. The following statements are equivalent:
- .
- contains a four-point subspace which is weakly similar either to or to .
This conjecture proposes that the two displayed four-point spaces are the complete finite obstructions to membership in ; its resolution is not supplied in the source.
