The planar loop-erased random walk neighbor probability conjecture

From papers

Let xZ2x \in \mathbb{Z}^2 be a neighbor of the origin, and let pNp_N be the probability that xx lies on the loop-erased random walk from oo to GN\partial G_N. Loop-erased random walk neighbor probability conjecture. As NN \to \infty,

pN516.p_N \to \frac{5}{16}.

This predicts an exact limiting probability for a fixed neighbor of the origin to lie on a loop-erased random walk in the planar lattice. The supplied context does not state whether the claim has been proved or remains open.
