Authored summary

The checked primary literature still treats universal connectivity as open for p>=5, while proving a finite effective remainder and several broad or bounded regions.

The record cites sources for its explanation. The outcome applies to this attempt's recorded scope.

2Authored explanation

The audit resolved the canonical equation, vertex convention, and Vieta-only edge set against the current primary sources. De Courcy-Ireland and Lee compute connectivity below 3000 for \(p\geq5\) in the coefficient-three normalization, using their Dehn-twist presentation of the strong-approximation graph. Brown cites that computation for the Vieta graph below 3000. Multiplication of all coordinates by 3 conjugates the coefficient-three Vieta moves to the canonical coefficient-one moves for \(p\neq3\). Brown proves connectivity below one million with an almost-linear criterion and defines the coefficient-one graph after assuming \(p>2\). Eddy et al. prove connectivity for every prime above \(3.448\times10^{392}\) and give the maximal-divisor criterion used here. Chen proves all but finitely many primes, and Martin supplies a later proof of the component-divisibility input. Bellah et al. connect special points for a family including certain Mersenne primes.

A search on 2026-07-28 used the exact formulations `site:arxiv.org Markoff mod p graph connectivity connectedness prime 2026`, `site:arxiv.org "Markoff mod p" graph connected connectivity`, and `site:doi.org Markoff graph modulo p connectivity`. It also checked the six exact-target arXiv records in the packet bibliography and the generalized-level search result. The strongest checked universal result remains Eddy et al.'s explicit upper threshold. Brown's exhaustive data cover 78,068 primes with \(3001\leq p\leq999{,}983\). No checked source resolves every prime \(p\geq5\).
