Six-pattern conjecture for lens surgeries on the Poincare homology sphere

Let Σ(2,3,5)\Sigma(2,3,5) be the Poincare homology sphere, let KΣ(2,3,5)K\subset\Sigma(2,3,5) be a knot, and suppose

L(p,q)=Σ(2,3,5)p(K).L(p,q)=\Sigma(2,3,5)_p(K).

For hH(p,K)h\in\mathcal{H}(p,K), where H(p,K)\mathcal{H}(p,K) is the set defined in the source, six-pattern conjecture. Either one of the following six patterns holds:

  1. L(p,q)=L(542+15+1,272+21+3)L(p,q)=L(54\ell^2+15\ell+1,27\ell^2+21\ell+3) for Z{0}\ell\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\};
  2. L(p,q)=L(542+39+7,272+33+9)L(p,q)=L(54\ell^2+39\ell+7,27\ell^2+33\ell+9) for Z{0}\ell\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\};
  3. L(p,q)=L(692+17+1,462+19+2)L(p,q)=L(69\ell^2+17\ell+1,46\ell^2+19\ell+2) for Z{0}\ell\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\};
  4. L(p,q)=L(692+29+3,462+27+4)L(p,q)=L(69\ell^2+29\ell+3,46\ell^2+27\ell+4) for Z{0}\ell\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\};
  5. 3.21h2/p3.613.21\leq h^2/p\leq 3.61;
  6. 1.15h2/p1.281.15\leq h^2/p\leq 1.28.

This is a rough conjecture based on the plotted data for lens surgeries on the Poincare homology sphere. The source does not establish the conjecture or provide a resolution status.
