T-structure criterion for CN-realizable matrices
T-structure criterion for CN-realizable matrices
Let be a strictly upper triangular -matrix, meaning that its entries are or , and suppose that for each there is at most one pair with and . A graph on the grid alignment has a T-structure when it satisfies conditions (C1), (C2), and (C3) specified in the source: path lengths satisfy (C1), and the edge configurations satisfy (C2) and (C3). The matrix is CN-realizable when it is the CN matrix of a pure braid projection. T-structure conjecture. If has a T-structure, then is CN-realizable. The source notes that some CN-realizable matrices have no T-structure, so the proposed condition is sufficient rather than necessary; its general status is not resolved.
