We also establish relationships between different cases of the conjecture and describe some new phenomena uncovered in this experimentation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-02-02T04:42:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14N15", "14P99", "14Q99" ], "keywords": [ "flag manifold", "extended abstract", "real schubert calculus fails", "shapiro conjecture", "gigahertz-years" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......2040R" } } }
