Conjecture on invariant sums of squared side areas for cyclic polygons

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let P\mathcal P be a family of cyclic nn-gons circumscribed about a central conic. For each polygon in the family, construct a square on every side and sum the areas of these squares. The circumcenter of the triangle is the center of D\mathcal D or one of its foci.

Invariant side-square area conjecture. The sum of the areas of the constructed squares remains invariant throughout P\mathcal P if and only if the circumcenter of the triangle coincides either with the center of D\mathcal D or with one of its foci.

This conjecture proposes an extension of the stated triangle theorem to cyclic nn-gons circumscribed about a central conic. Its status is unresolved in the supplied text.
