The previous statement "Heawood is constant on K through merged" was
strictly stronger than what the proof actually established without
Conjecture 5.3. Restate the lemma in the contrapositive direction:
If h_phi is constant on V(K), then no edge e in E(K) admits a face
F of G'^hat and edges e_1, e_2 on dF realising the clause-(3) arc
of Conjecture 5.1 at the endpoints of e.
Proof structure is mostly preserved (same F_R/F_L geometry, same case
split on phi(e) in {a, b}, same reading-off of cyclic colour orders).
The hypothesis "h_phi(v_0) != h_phi(v_1)" becomes "h_phi(v_0) =
h_phi(v_1)", which flips the conclusion: the same-coloured non-e
edges at v_0, v_1 land on opposite faces of e instead of the same
face. No dependency on Conjecture 5.3 or Theorem 4.X.
Redraw the figure to match the new lemma: both vertices labelled
h_phi = +1, both showing CW order (a, b, c), and the same-colour pair
(b-edges in Case A, a-edges in Case B) drawn on opposite sides of e.

"""Two-panel illustration of the proof of Lemma 5.2 (a Heawood-constant
|
|
Kempe cycle does not admit the clause-(3) arc of Conjecture 5.1).
|
|
|
|
Each panel shows two consecutive vertices v_0, v_1 on the {a, b}-Kempe
|
|
cycle K, joined by an edge e, with h(v_0) = h(v_1) = +1: i.e., both
|
|
have the same clockwise colour order (a, b, c). The would-be witness
|
|
edges (b-edges in Case A, a-edges in Case B) lie on opposite sides of
|
|
e, so no face of the graph contains both of them.
|
|
|
|
Left panel (Case A): phi(e) = a. The b-edges at v_0, v_1 are on
|
|
opposite sides of e (one south, one north).
|
|
|
|
Right panel (Case B): phi(e) = b. The a-edges at v_0, v_1 are on
|
|
opposite sides of e.
