The augmented acyclicity conjecture for the Collatz return graph
The augmented acyclicity conjecture for the Collatz return graph
Let denote the augmented return graph at modular depth , incorporating the mixed-state excursion, exit, and return dynamics, and let be the parameter indexing the net-positive regime. Augmented acyclicity conjecture. For every and every , the graph is acyclic. The supplied text reports verification only for finite ranges of and treats all- acyclicity as the unresolved Layer-2 re-entry problem.
