Farkas's pure-resolution conjecture for special curves

Let p0p\ge 0 and s2s\ge 2 be integers, and set

r=(s+1)(p+2)2,g=(r+1)s,d=r(s+1).r=(s+1)(p+2)-2,\qquad g=(r+1)s,\qquad d=r(s+1).

Let CPrC\subset\mathbb P^r be a general smooth normal curve of genus gg, degree dd, and speciality h1(OC(1))=sh^1(\mathcal O_C(1))=s.

Farkas's conjecture. The curve CC has a pure resolution, equivalently it satisfies property NpN_p.

If true, the associated non-NpN_p locus gives divisors that yield counterexamples to the slope conjecture. The source reports computational verification in small cases, but the supplied status is unknown.
