5-local-tensions ★★

Author(s): DeVos

Conjecture   There exists a fixed constant $ c $ (probably $ c=4 $ suffices) so that every embedded (loopless) graph with edge-width $ \ge c $ has a 5-local-tension.

A homomorphism problem for flows ★★

Author(s): DeVos

Conjecture   Let $ M,M' $ be abelian groups and let $ B \subseteq M $ and $ B' \subseteq M' $ satisfy $ B=-B $ and $ B' = -B' $. If there is a homomorphism from $ Cayley(M,B) $ to $ Cayley(M',B') $, then every graph with a B-flow has a B'-flow.
