Complete-intersection conjecture for equidimensional radical Jacobian ideals of depth at least three

Let DD be a divisor in a complex manifold SS, defined locally at a point pp by a reduced hOS,ph \in \mathcal{O}_{S,p}. Suppose that the Jacobian ideal JhJ_h is radical, equidimensional, and has depth at least 33 in OS,p\mathcal{O}_{S,p}. Higher-depth Jacobian conjecture. The variety SingD\operatorname{Sing} D with coordinate ring OS,p/Jh\mathcal{O}_{S,p}/J_h is a complete intersection; equivalently, SingD\operatorname{Sing} D is Cohen--Macaulay and, by the cited proposition, is smooth. The authors state that non-complete-intersection radical Jacobian ideals of height at least 33 are not understood and that even their existence is unclear, so this assertion remains open.
