Transience conjecture for self-interacting random walks in dimension at least four

Let μ1,,μd1\mu_1,\ldots,\mu_{d-1} be dd-dimensional measures in Rd\mathbb{R}^d, with d4d\geq 4, zero mean, and finite (2+β)(2+\beta)-moments for some β>0\beta>0, and let \ell be an arbitrary adapted rule. Transience conjecture. The walk XX generated by these measures and the rule \ell is transient.

This conjecture proposes transience in dimensions at least four under only moment and zero-mean assumptions, uniformly over adapted rules. The supplied text presents it as an open question; no resolution is given.
