The prime-level weight-three dimension conjecture

Let p5p\geq 5 be prime, and let d(3,p)d(3,p) denote the dimension of the \Q\Q-space of weight-three multiple polylogarithm values of level pp. Standard relations are the regularized double shuffle, distribution, seeded, and lifted relations used in the paper.

Prime-level weight-three conjecture.

d(3,p)p3+4p2+5p+1412.d(3,p)\leq \frac{p^3+4p^2+5p+14}{12}.

Moreover, equality holds if standard relations produce all the linear relations. The bound is inferred from computations for p=5,7,11,13p=5,7,11,13; the source presents the assertion as a conjecture and gives no resolution.
