Q: When can a graph on n nodes be reconstructed from it's vertex switching deck?

Patrick GambillThe original statement of this conjecture comes from Richard Stanley in 1985. In a nutshell, the switching reconstruction problem asks when graphs can be determined (up to isomorphism) from their switching decks. It is known that not all graphs on 4 vertices are reconstructable. It is also known ...

@bobeyt6 As pointed out by @bobeyt6, please delete it

See my comment: I think that this is a question about mind reading, rather than mathematics. Or am I missing something? Why not build Measure Theory with Algebras, instead of Semirings?‭ - Gustavo De Souza‭ 2023-01-30 15:52:55Z
@XanderHenderson Agreed. Thus far, one close vote.

Q: String of 0s and 1s

John SmithGiven a finite string of $0$s and $1$s, three actions can be done to the string: Add or remove "00" anywhere into the string Add or remove "111" anywhere into the string Swap "11" with "010" or swap "010" with "11" I would like to prove that it is impossible to transform 01 to 10 using those 3 ...

@Semiclassical In order to enforce the contest problem policy, I need a link to some place where I can see the problem list and some indication that using outside resources is against the rules. Absent such a citation, I, as a moderator, am not empowered to do very much. Non-moderator users are free to close and delete (and I would encourage them to do so).
understandable
it's not a contest exactly, it's seemingly part of the Stanford University Mathematics Camp application
@Semiclassical Right, but it falls under the contest problem policy.
Contest problems and entrance exam problems and the like are all covered under the same general policy.
yeah. not a relevant difference, just wanted to be precise
it's probably not posted online, so we'd probably need to email someone to confirm it...and as annoyed as i am, i'm not willing to invest that energy
The question is closed, in any event.

gud
i do wish i was a 20k user to help with deletion in cases like this
