Salvati Manni–Grushevsky codimension conjecture for triple-point loci

Let Ag{\mathcal A}_g be the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties, let T3(g)T_3^{(g)} be the locus of ppav together with a point where the theta divisor has multiplicity at least three, and let T3(g)[2]T_3^{(g)}[2] be the corresponding locus with the point restricted to a 22-torsion point. Let π\pi forget the marked point, and define

F3,0(g)=π(T3(g)),I(g):=π(T3(g)[2]).F_{3,0}^{(g)}=\pi(T_3^{(g)}),\qquad I^{(g)}:=\pi(T_3^{(g)}[2]).

Salvati Manni–Grushevsky codimension conjecture. The loci F3,0(g)F_{3,0}^{(g)} and I(g)I^{(g)} are purely of codimension gg in Ag{\mathcal A}_g.

The conjecture gives the expected codimension of the ordinary and odd two-torsion triple-point loci. The source attributes it to Salvati Manni and the first author and gives no resolution status.
