Almost-all graphs greedy and tree-solvable conjecture

About 21 years old · traced to

A graph is greedy if every configuration of π(G)\pi(G) pebbles can be solved at any specified root using only greedy pebbling steps. It is tree-solvable if every configuration of size π(G)\pi(G) can be solved so that the edges used by pebbling steps form an acyclic graph. Almost-all graphs conjecture. Almost every graph is greedy and tree-solvable.

The paper gives examples of graphs that are neither greedy nor tree-solvable, and notes that even semi-greediness need not be preserved under graph products; the asymptotic assertion itself is left unresolved.
