Uniform surface conjecture for exterior algebraic shifting
Uniform surface conjecture for exterior algebraic shifting
Let be a fixed orientable surface of genus , and let denote its uniform random triangulation with vertices. Let denote exterior algebraic shifting over a fixed field, and let be the corresponding homology lex-segment complex.
Uniform surface conjecture. For every fixed genus , a.a.s.,
This would show that the exterior shifting of a uniform triangulation of a fixed orientable surface is a homology lex-segment and, in particular, that is a.a.s. -free. The statement is not known; local neighborhoods of almost every vertex are known to be a.a.s. planar.
