An Autonomous Research Agent Takes On Conway's 99-Graph Problem and Reports Verifiable Bounds, Not a Solution
The work narrows the search space for a longstanding open question in combinatorics, and its value rests entirely on results a machine can check.
Conway's 99-graph problem asks whether a strongly regular graph with parameters (99, 14, 1, 2) exists, meaning a graph with 99 vertices where every two adjacent vertices share exactly one neighbor and every two non-adjacent vertices share e…
