Authored summary

The exact Comellas–Yebra construction proves Δ₁₀ ≥ 0.04653741958254177256.... No checked source proves a matching unrestricted upper bound, so the exact value of Δ₁₀ remains open.

The record cites sources for its explanation.

2Authored explanation

Sudermann-Merx, arXiv:2603.11107v2, gives globally certified solutions for \(n\le9\). Section 7 says that extending certification to \(n=10\) remains open and will require substantial computation. Appendix A, Table 11 gives the exact Comellas–Yebra ten-point construction and identifies it as best known.

Monji, Modir, and Kocuk, arXiv:2512.14505v1, also leave \(n=10\) open. Their reported ten-point run uses a restricted model with two unproved assumptions: exactly two points on each edge and \(y_5\le1/2\). The solver reached no matching upper bound within one day.

The sources therefore support an exact best-known construction and an open unrestricted upper-bound problem. The two structural assumptions belong to the Monji-Modir-Kocuk restricted computation.
