Universality conjecture for generic-curve Hall algebras

About 17 years old · traced to

Let XX and X′X' be generic smooth projective curves of the same genus gg, and let KX\mathcal{K}_X and KX′\mathcal{K}_{X'} be their graded Grothendieck algebras over Rep⁡(Tag)\operatorname{Rep}(T^g_a). Generic-curve universality conjecture. For any two generic curves XX and X′X',

KX≃KX′.\mathcal{K}_X\simeq\mathcal{K}_{X'}.

This asserts that the formal Hall algebra depends only on the genus among generic curves. The source says the claim is known for genus zero and one, but leaves higher-genus cases open.
