contents Wang, Cui, and Cioabă introduced the Laplacian matching root integral variation of a graph and proved that it cannot occur in one place. They also showed that the two-place variation is impossible for connected graphs satisfying $g(G)/c(G)>7/6$, where $g(G)$ is the girth and $c(G)$ is the dimension of the cycle space, and conjectured that no connected graph admits such a two-place variation. In this paper, we confirm this conjecture. The proof combines a structural relation obtained in their paper with two new power-sum identities for Laplacian matching roots.
