Chromatic polynomial: The chromatic polynomial P_G(k) counts proper k-colorings of G. Its zeros in ℂ are constrained; the region |z-1| ≤ 1 is conjectured to be zero-free (Sokal 2001). Many open questions on zero distribution.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
