Vinzant's Conjecture on Phase Retrieval Injectivity

partialconfidence 70%

VibeMathed reports this item as partial. VibeMath preserves that report as a source assertion and has not independently authored a plain-language mathematical explanation.

Precise statement

Vinzant conjectured, in a form later restated by Bandeira, that the $4M-4$ threshold for injective complex phase retrieval is sharp. Part (1) holds: for $A \in \mathbb{C}^{N \times M}$ with $N = 4M-5$ and i.i.d. standard complex Gaussian entries, the phase retrieval map generated by $A$ fails to be injective with positive probability.

The source statement is reproduced for indexing with attribution. Mathematical correctness requires domain-expert or mechanical review. VibeMath has not independently audited statement fidelity, correctness, priority, or novelty.
