The graph characterization of generic minimal rigidity on concentric cones and tori
The graph characterization of generic minimal rigidity on concentric cones and tori
Let be a cone, a torus, a union of concentric cones or a union of concentric tori, and let be a generic placement. A graph is generically minimally rigid on when the framework has generic minimal rigidity on . The graph is -tight when it satisfies the corresponding -tightness condition.
Graph characterization conjecture. Then is generically minimally rigid on if and only if , , , or is -tight.
This conjecture would characterize generic minimal rigidity for frameworks on cones, tori, and unions of concentric cones or tori. The source presents it as further work expected to follow from the preceding inductive construction theorem; its resolution is not supplied here.
