A counterexample to a conjecture on Schur positivity of chromatic symmetric functions of trees

Abstract

We show that no tree on twenty vertices with maximum degree ten has Schur positive chromatic symmetric function, thereby providing a counterexample to a conjecture from the paper "Schur and e-positivity of trees and cut vertices".
