For k ≥ 4, we construct two uncolored graphs that are k -dimensional Weisfeiler–Leman equivalent exactly when a prescribed finite-domain choice system has no compatible choice. The system has $k+1$ domains for joint refinement and k for separate-coordinate refinement. A successful choice is detected after two joint rounds or one separate round. Applied to sparse satisfiability, the reduction gives fixed-dimension $n^{\Omega(k)}$ time exclusions under positive-rate ETH, even for deciding equality of these early histograms.

the publication of the OpenAI papers yesterday, we have decided to put the current version of our paper Lower Bounds for Weisfeiler-Leman (with Radu Curticapean, Mingjun Liu, and Daniel Neuen) online. The results in the paper extend tight lower complexity lower bounds on the Weisfeiler-Leman…
