Roberson's homomorphism-counting conjecture for proper minor-closed classes
Roberson's homomorphism-counting conjecture for proper minor-closed classes
Let be a graph class that is proper, minor-closed, and union-closed. For graphs and , write when for every . Roberson's conjecture. If is a proper, minor-closed, and union-closed graph class, then there are non-isomorphic graphs and such that
This conjecture says that homomorphism counts from any such proper minor-closed class do not characterize graphs up to isomorphism. The source attributes it to Roberson; its resolution is not specified here.
