Affine stress reconstruction conjecture for spheres without large missing faces
Affine stress reconstruction conjecture for spheres without large missing faces
Assume . Let be a -sphere in , with a generic or natural embedding in . Let denote the space of affine -stresses and let denote the corresponding space of differential operators. Affine stress reconstruction conjecture. For all ,
The conjecture was proposed as a structural description of affine stress spaces, but the paper gives counterexamples showing that it fails when ; it is therefore refuted.
