Conway–Sloane's non-isometry conjecture for tetralattice pairs

Let L1;a,b,c,dL_{1;a,b,c,d} and L2;a,b,c,dL_{2;a,b,c,d} be the two lattices in Conway and Sloane's real four-parameter family, with parameters (a,b,c,d)R4(a,b,c,d)\in\mathbb R^4. Conway–Sloane's conjecture. For all real numbers (a,b,c,d)R4(a,b,c,d)\in\mathbb R^4 satisfying

0<a<b<c<d,0<a<b<c<d,

the lattices L1;a,b,c,dL_{1;a,b,c,d} and L2;a,b,c,dL_{2;a,b,c,d} are isospectral but not isomorphic. The family gives pairs of isospectral lattices in Euclidean four-space; Conway and Sloane formulated the conjecture from computational evidence, while the paper studies its non-isometry assertion.
