Reinforcement Learning the Chromatic Symmetric Function

Abstract

We propose a conjectural counting formula for the coefficients of the chromatic symmetric function of unit interval graphs using reinforcement learning. The formula counts specific disjoint cycle-tuples in the graphs, referred to as Eschers, which satisfy certain concatenation conditions. These conditions are identified by a reinforcement learning model and are independent of the particular unit interval graph, resulting a universal counting expression.
