Classification conjecture for equal determinants of colored paths
Classification conjecture for equal determinants of colored paths
Let ) and be two colored paths on vertices with concentration matrices and satisfying
A reflection of a colored path is the path obtained by reversing its vertex order. Colored-path determinant conjecture. If is even, then one of the following holds: is identical to ; is a reflection of ; or and satisfy the color configuration stated in the even-path theorem, or a reflection of that configuration. If is odd, then one of the following holds: is identical to ; is a reflection of ; or and satisfy the color configuration stated in the odd-path theorem, or a reflection of that configuration. The claim is presented as an unresolved conjecture based on the necessary color-multiset conditions proved earlier.
