The generalized Sp2S^2_p-flow conjecture

For a bridgeless graph GG, let

Spd1:={xRd:xp=1}S_p^{d-1}:=\{\boldsymbol{x}\in\mathbb{R}^d:\lVert\boldsymbol{x}\rVert_p=1\}

be the unit pp-sphere. The generalized Sp2S^2_p-flow conjecture. For every bridgeless graph GG and every p[1,]p\in[1,\infty],

ϕ3,p(G)=2.\phi_{3,p}(G)=2.

This extends Jain's S2S^2-flow conjecture from the Euclidean sphere to all pp-norms. The source notes that the case p=p=\infty is proved, while the general assertion is suggested using the preceding monotonicity and duality conjectures.
