Hollmann's pseudocyclicity conjecture for the Frobenius fusion scheme
Hollmann's pseudocyclicity conjecture for the Frobenius fusion scheme
Let , let be the set of exterior lines to a fixed nonsingular conic in , and let be the elliptic association scheme. For , define the Frobenius orbit
and set
Let be a set of representatives for the Frobenius orbits on . The fusion scheme is obtained by merging the classes of the elliptic scheme along these orbits.
Hollmann's conjecture. If is an odd prime, then is pseudocyclic.
When is prime, each nontrivial Frobenius orbit has size , so the fusion scheme has equal nontrivial valencies. The conjecture asserts the remaining condition needed for pseudocyclicity; the source gives no resolution.
