2Authored explanation

For each graph6 record, the exact computation should perform these steps:

1. Decode the graph and compute its 28 integer shortest-path distances. 2. Enumerate the \(7!/2=2{,}520\) unoriented Hamilton cycles to obtain the exact tour value and a minimizing order. 3. Solve the subtour LP with eight degree equations and one representative of each complementary pair of nontrivial cut inequalities. Preserve a rational primal optimum and a rational dual optimum. 4. Verify both certificates with integer arithmetic after clearing denominators. Record every tied maximizer. 5. Recompute each maximizing graph's canonical graph6 label with an independent nauty call.

The diameter-two cases can be pruned against the sourced \(18/17\) upper bound once an incumbent exceeds it. Bridges and articulation decompositions offer further reductions, though each reduction needs a proof for this exact degree-constrained metric LP.

This record stops before the 11,117 LP solves. It makes no claim that the cycle incumbent is optimal.
