Problem 2.1 What is the maximum constant \( K \) such that all simple CPT-graphs \( G \) have \( {\chi }_{\mathrm{s}}^{\prime }\left( G\right) \geq K \) ?
The foregoing discussion illustrates that \( K \geq 9 \) . We think that the exact value of \( K \) should be 11. The following Fig. 5 presents a CPT-graph \( {G}^{* * } \) with \( {\chi }_{\mathrm{s}}^{\prime }\left( {G}^{* * }\right) = {11} \) . Thus, if our conjecture holds, then the result is the best possible.
