The truncation invariance conjecture for matroid zeta-function coefficients
The truncation invariance conjecture for matroid zeta-function coefficients
Let be a matroid of rank , and let denote its truncation. Write for the topological zeta function of .
Truncation invariance conjecture. For every integer with ,
This conjecture generalizes the known result for matroids whose truncation is uniform. A proof would show that the low-order Taylor coefficients of the topological zeta function are controlled by the corresponding truncation and, consequently, by low-rank information in the lattice of flats.
