The two-part refined symbolic-power containment conjecture

Let KK be an algebraically closed field, let II be the radical ideal of a finite set of points in PN\mathbb{P}^{N}, and let M=(x0,,xN)M=(x_0,\ldots,x_N) be the maximal homogeneous ideal of K[PN]K[\mathbb{P}^{N}]. Refined two-part containment conjecture. For all positive integers mm and tt, both containments hold:

I(t(m+N1)N+1)(I(m))tI^{(t(m+N-1)-N+1)}\subseteq (I^{(m)})^t

and

I(t(m+N1)N+1)M(t1)(N1)(I(m))t.I^{(t(m+N-1)-N+1)}\subseteq M^{(t-1)(N-1)}(I^{(m)})^t.

The source explains that this conjecture simultaneously implies earlier containment conjectures and presents it as an unresolved synthesis of them.
