From 246b8914e7bbcb30ef37c7c7627b15e7c42ee1c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: didericis Date: Mon, 25 May 2026 06:57:20 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] face_monochromatic_pairs: refine S-cycle analysis; G'-pentagon fallback needs strengthening MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit experiments/check_S_face_structure.py: detailed analysis of S-cycle structure for the 1,314 bad chord-apex+Kempe colourings. Findings: 1. S-cycle is NEVER a face boundary of the reduced dual (0% across all |S| from 2 to 10). So the S-cycle's "interior" contains additional faces. 2. Refined pigeonhole + p_G ≥ 7 + S-cycle structure closes: - |S| = 2: max hit 2 < p_G ≥ 7. ✓ 420 / 1314. - |S| = 4: max hit 4 < p_G ≥ 8. ✓ 258 / 1314. - |S| = 6: max hit 7 < p_G ≥ 8. ✓ 348 / 1314. - |S| = 10: max hit 7 < p_G ≥ 8. ✓ 36 / 1314. Total: 1062 / 1314 = 80.8% of bad colourings closed. 3. |S| = 8: max hit = 8 = min p_G (sometimes). ≤ 30 colourings (~2.3% of bad, ~0.02% of full 142,812) have ALL G'-pentagons hit by S — so the G'-pentagon fallback (Conjecture 5.X) is EMPIRICALLY FALSE in this sub-case! For these, the deciding face must be a G'-heptagon (length 7) or G'-octagon (length 8), not a pentagon. Both lengths are ≢ 0 mod 3 and so still serve as deciding faces. So the structurally-correct fallback is "G'-face of length ≢ 0 mod 3", not "G'-pentagon" specifically. This is consistent with the deciding-face data: 462 incidences of length-7 G-prime-faces, 6 of length-8. Combined structural coverage: - Tight cases (a', b', c): 91% (1,205 / 1,314 plus full-coverage cases) - Refined pigeonhole: 80.8% of bad colourings = 1062 / 1314 - Total: ≈ 99.5% of full 142,812 chord-apex+Kempe colourings structurally proven. The remaining ~0.02% (30 colourings) need a structural argument that some G'-face of length ≢ 0 mod 3 always exists with boundary in V(K_b) ∪ V(K_c).
