The tropical chromatic number conjecture for Euclidean space

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let d4a3nd4a3^n be equipped with the tropical metric, and let d4a4nd4a4^n denote its integer lattice with the induced tropical metric. The tropical chromatic number conjecture. The tropical chromatic numbers of both spaces are

χtr(Zn)=χtr(Rn)=2n.\chi_{\mathrm{tr}}(\mathbb{Z}^{n})=\chi_{\mathrm{tr}}(\mathbb{R}^{n})=2^n.

The conjecture is verified in dimensions n≤3n\leq 3; the general case remains open.
