Claim

The September 2026 Erdős–Chvátal simplex conjecture preprint states that if 2≤d<k and (d+1)k≤dv, every d-simplex-free family of k-subsets of [v] has at most binom(v−1,k−1) members, with equality only for a full star.

Supported

Score: 0.8581 under ledger-default@0.3.0 at snapshot 27745

2 of 4 review checks done · 1 counted · 1 by the author only

Main unresolved issue: 2 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:953a34b6-8db0-8dbf-aac5-f57e18e28412

Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.A quoted passage from arxiv.org was not found on the page when Galedra fetched it.

Why?

Strongest counted support: The arXiv abstract states the full-parameter theorem and its equality characterization. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The quoted arXiv abstract directly states the full parameter range, binomial upper bound, and equality only for a full star.

Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
