The cubic graph relation between Speyer and Tutte polynomials
Let be a connected cubic graph with vertices. Write the Tutte polynomial as
Cubic Tutte relation conjecture. The second derivative of Speyer's polynomial satisfies
This would give a uniform relation between a coefficient of Speyer's polynomial and the first two relevant Tutte coefficients for connected cubic graphs. The paper reports data supporting the identity but does not prove it.
